Quite a rude awakening this morning! Hail on the garden table top, windscreen and rhubarb.

Hi Sue, Fascinating recent collection of birds. You were lucky with the bullfinch, I haven't seen one for years. What species are the parakeets? They can be terribly noisy - are they? Goldfinch in my garden yesterday, the first time this year. A few weeks back I saw a red kite in the distance from my study - nice to add it to the 116 list.
Visited the Chalk Pits on Monday - peregrines appear to be nesting.
I'm hearing that Parakeets are bad news as they predate on other birds, and I have to say I haven't seen any Woodpeckers in the garden recently. I hope not to see a Parakeet again. Yes, it was a joy to see a pair of Bullfinches after a very long time.
This blog is to provide me with a photographic record of each year - and I now hope to keep it going after a few false starts! Most days I'm out first thing with our remaining dog, so posting something quite frequently.

Hope all is well with you.
