Prolonged snowy weather can result in some surprises, especially in gardens. A 'student' currently has a flock of Fieldfare visiting his suburban garden; whilst another has a male Blackcap terrorising her Hutton Cranswick regulars, and a female is doing the same in Napier Close, Beverley. Although these birds have yet to be photographed, above are some recently-taken seasonal pictures, including a few surprises. Happy Christmas & Best wishes for 2010 to everyone who visits this blog.
