Another year of unspectacular birds starts

And so another year starts with a no bangs but merely a slightly damp but gentle fart. Three weeks in and 55 species isn't amazing, unsurprisingly, but it is 62.03% and most importantly keeps us just ahead of The Proclaimers in the battle of the average agricultural patches. No real highlights though it was pleasing to see a flock of  dozen or so grey partridges twice in two days, by far the largest group I've had here of a now very scarce bird.
