Winter Visitors - Montgomery

 As the temperature drops and Winter upon us, many birds in the garden are turning to the apples as their source of food. This weekend saw the arrival of a female Blackcap who would visit the tree every half an hour or so. Just like last year, a single Fieldfare has staked its claim to one of the trees and is never too far away. This one has been feasting on the apples for the last three weeks.
