It's amazing what you think about whilst crouching in a holly bush waiting for the birds to land. In that 3 hours i saw a young Badger, deer (but couldn't tell whether Roe or Fallow due to the thickness of the bushes), Pheasant, Guinea fowl, barn owl, woodpecker, rook, jackdaw plus a shedload of finches and tits......and i suspect a Woodcock.
Got to love being outside watching tits buddy!
