  1. What a great variety of birds you saw. Were all those first lot on the same feeder? I'm glad you named them all as I'm not too bad with garden birds, but I'm not too hot on water birds.

    1. I'm rubbish on water birds too. Lots of internet checking to sort out the ducks and geese. Yes all the first series of birds were on the same feeder. I just set the video camera running on the feeder and edit as necessary. We didn't think we'd done that well as other visitors spotted waxwings, and bramblings. Still there's always another time.

  2. Thanks, I enjoyed watching this through my lunchtime cuppa! I’d love to see the bullfinch at my feeders here but can’t complain about the numbers of birds I do see. Great Canada Goose footage – I only see them occasionally at a Reserve we visit. Such pretty birds.

  3. Glad you enjoyed the footage Shirley. Strange that Canada Geese are one of the birds we can usually be sure to see on a visit to Old Moor Reserve.
