Passer montanus On The Peanuts, 9th January 2009

A quick dash late afternoon to my feeding station on Rawcliffe Moss revealed 65 Tree Sparrows with a large number of them feeding on the large peanut feeder I put up to increase our catch when ringing here for training purposes! I wasn't on the farm long and the only other things I had of note were 3,500 Woodpigeons, 3 Song Thrush and 16 Fieldfares.

Forgive me if I have showed you the above picture before of a Hawk Owl taking a mouse from the hand. Many thanks to Nigel for the picture.

Year list = 65
