Snow

Well, we'd managed to avaid the worst of it in Northampton until last night that is. About 3 inches fell overnight which meant a bit of sweeping was necessary to clear some ground for birdseed.  The wood pigeons really enjoyed it. Visitors to the feeders are still at relatively low numbers which suggests that birds are still finding plenty of wild food. That said we had the local sparrow gang around yesterday - about 15 individuals.
