As expected, the tree sparrows we were watching on the feeders last week seemed to have been passing through, and although we watched several individuals between Wednesday and Friday, we haven't seen them since. But today the female reed bunting which has been a regular visitor for the last few weeks was joined by a male, which was the first we've seen in the garden this winter.
