Forest of Dean



24 Jan - The first day with some sun for quite a while. A stop "on spec" at Brierley surprisingly produced 7+ Hawfinches (upper, photo copyright Paul Masters) in the hornbeams opposite the garage. The Great Grey Shrike (lower, photo copyright Richard Tyler) then showed well at Boy's Grave and 20 Crossbills flew over. Good numbers of Buzzards in evidence but I couldn't find a Dipper on any of the streams I checked. Glos year list now up to 102.
