Wykeham Forest & Scalby Mills Pond

A trip to Wykeham Forest last weekend, with the intention of a walk amongst the trees - not quite as planned - the snow had been drifting here and and was about 2ft deep in places.




After walking for 2 hours, I saw the most birds on return to the car park.

Coal Tit


Treecreeper




Chaffinch


A superb Jay




Robin and Dunnock busy at the feeder

No takers for a seat today!


A short visit to Scalby Mills Pond - a number of Curlew were feeding on the ridge


Greylag Goose


Redshank


Fieldfare feeding in the flooded fields


No sign of the Barn Owl today, but it was that cold he probably stayed in doors!
