A very noisy flock of about 8 long-tailed tits passed through my front garden. They first appeared in the lilac tree but by the time I got my camera they had flown across to our neighbours garden opposite the track.
They foraged for a while before slowly moving on up the track (heading north away from our house and eventually disappeared down into the lower gardens.
About 20 minutes later, a noise flock (probably the same long-tailed tits) headed back south along the gardens behind ours, sending a few minutes in the apple tree before flying off.
I have seen them in the local park and it is possible where these birds and come from and returning to.

Bees and goldfinches
Along with the fuscia, lavender and nastursium the hebe continues to attract and provide food for white-tailed bumble bees.
The recent cold snap sadly finished off the remaining morning glory flowers.
A small flock of gold finches has been travelling back and forth along the gardens.
