Hi John

Yep, all in the New Forest. I'm not much of a traveller so I don't often go anywhere else.
I stuck everything else in the diary section of WAB.

We were in the Gardens of Heligan when we saw a bird just like this,I thought
it was a Myna bird at first, lovely snapshot

[Beryl]

Thanks. I was a bit puzzled at first as the face on shot shows a great deal more of the white feathers. I'm sure it is a blackbird, though I could be wrong

Isn't he lovely? . We have a female blackbird, which I will try and get a photo of that looks like she's crossed with a ringed ouzel. I don't live that far from their Welsh stomping ground, so I wonder if they could be moving west into the Mendips as it's pretty wild up there in places!

My bird of the day is a male Garganey on the Conservation Lake at Belhus Woods Country Park in Essex .... unfortunately too distant for a decent photograph.

Also plenty of Chiffchaffs "chiff-chaffing" around the site and 2 Lesser Redpolls.

Congratulations mrs fish for attracting goldfinches to your garden, no doubt you will see them very often now that they found you.
