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

My garden is pretty tiny and very suburban but I usually get a good mix of Chaffinches, Gold Finches and Green Finches. This winter I have had the obligatory migrant Blackcap hogging the bird food and just in the last week I have have a regular flock of 2-4 Common Redpoll and I saw a nice Brambling sitting in the bird-feeder tree for a minute or two I haven't seen Redpoll in the garden before and haven't seen Bramblings since "the great Brambling year" a few years ago.
