Hoard of Hawfinchs







Braxted Park was this mornings destination to try and catch up with the Hawfinchs. And how pleased i was when 9 birds showed up in the tall mistletoe cladded trees. Easily recognizable by the big strong bulky beaks, that they use to break the cherry and hornbeam seeds. I shall be making a few more visits to this site, hoping that the sun shines ! So i can obtain some better pictures.
