30th Dec - Light rain am, then lighter cloud, mod SW, 11C

Shawell;

I found a bird food/cover area holding c 100 Chaffinches, plus a Brambling, a Greenfinch, two Reed Buntings, a Yellowhammer and Linnet.

I suspect more will be found when checked again earlier in the day.

Stanford reservoir; afternoon.

Red-crested Pochard, drake still present.  Nothing else new.
