Similarly today, I had the most Goldfinch on my feeders.
Only 12 but I don't feed niger seed yet.
Also heard and spotted about a dozen Long tail Tits by the lights. Beaumont road /
Junction road.
A Heron flew over as I was trying, unsuccessfully, to dig my drive clear to make the Wigan RSPB trip to PENNY

Flock of 40+ goldfinches on the garden feeders this morning. Goldfinches are by far the most common bird in the garden these days, with up to 10 from time to time, but never as many as today. Small numbers of greenfinch, chaffinch and house sparrow plus a few blue and great tits.
