A brief visit to the Mound and football pitch produced a single Woodcock, 20 Meadow Pipits and a handful of Redwings.
The south pool at Woodhorn is becoming a regular haunt of some of Newbiggin’s Mediterranean Gulls and four were present this monring, 3 adults and a 2nd-winter. Coot numbers were up to 56 due in part to the cold weather and a pair of Gadwall were the first of the year there (for me).
Around 80 Fieldfares fed in stubble and horse fields at the south end of Newbiggin.
