Kingfisher perched on a mooring pontoon handrail in the rain at Shakespeare Marina, Stratford-U-Avon on 1.2.26, viewed from the public footpath. Possibly finding it easier to fish in the calm water of the marina rather than the adjacent fast flowing & swollen Avon @Natures_Voice

@Team4Nature I was watching at least 40 Redwings & about 5 Fieldfares on a berry bush in Yardley Cemetery, B'ham, yesterday morning & only realised there was a female Blackcap amongst them when I looked back at my photos.
There were plenty of other birds around too.

A Song Thursh yesterday in our garden in Yardley B25 bashing &dropping a snail to retrieve the edible part from the shell. S Thrush's are rare in our garden so I assume the current dry spell and lack of earth worms is driving this behaviour @EcoRecording @Team4Nature
