The usual Blackbirds, Robins & Song Thrushes were singing along with Chaffinches, Treecreepers, Great Tits, Goldcrest, Hawfinch & my first Redstarts & Blackcap of the year.

Firecrests were singing away (my first of the year), as were Song thrushes, Mistle Thrushes, Marsh Tits, Treecreepers & Blackbirds.
I walked through Knightwood Inclosure where there were some Great Spotted Woodpeckers drumming & calling, a Woodlark was singing over a clear-fell area & Siskins & Crossbills were flying over.
