- Today we took a small sample of birds due to the inclement cold weather. Body condition and their mass was really good, which shows they have been feeding OK. The adult female Blackbird has a 'continental' longer wing length than our resident birds, suggesting it has crossed the North Sea.

- Confirmation bias when helping people. This chap posts some pics of what is clearly a female Sparrowhawk on a wall in a garden. The vast majority of people come back with Sparrowhawk. He now thinks it's a Goshawk. Aalconery centre apparently backs him up. So it must be a Goshawk. Arrrrrgghhhhhh
