Several Tree Sparrow pilfink returned to the garden after a period of absence. The Chaffinch bokfink flock increased to around 20 and a few Coal Tit svartmeis also used the feeders. Although very common in the surrounding woods the latter species tends not to come into the garden much.

With so many birds at the feeders it was no surprise that a Sparrowhawk spurvehauk had a go at catching one of them.

Otherwise it was business as usual with a couple of White-tailed Eagle havørn over the garden along with most of the usual stuff.
