It's October and I'm still getting most of the same species visiting the pond as I did in the summer.
Great video Nick, nice to see so much activity.

Coming back from a walk down the woods this morning, fluttering from garden to garden a black redstart. Don't see them often and only this time of year when I do.

Good spot willpar. I think I've only ever seen one and that was fleetingly. I'm looking forward to the month end video report.

Our neighbourhood sparrow hawk has been busy again catching its prey in our back garden. I caught a glimpse of it but it was gone when I went for my phone.

Sadly it is a fact of life if you attract birds to your garden. Hunting is so much easier for the Sprawk when there are lots of targets in a small area.

This is a first for me, lovely bird. I THINK it's a Redwing but stand to be corrected!
