Re: What new birds are now coming into your garden this winter??

A completely new species for my garden was a Lesser Redpoll who visited for two days near the end of January, including whilst I was doing the RSPB garden Birdwatch.

I've had almost daily visits from up to 4 Bramblings since Christmas Eve, more than I've seen in previous winters.

Redwing and Fieldfare come into my garden in large numbers, 50 at a time, in the Autumn to eat the Rowan Berries, but there were a couple of each now and again in December. In previous years I've had Waxwings in the garden, when it's been a year when lots come over.
