There were lots of Tit species as you would expect mainly Blue & Great Tits but also at least 2 Coal Tits put in an appearance.

There was also male & female Chaffinch a single Robin and a single Treecreeper which was seen on a few occasions and i was very lucky to get a photo of as Chiddy couldn't see it from his position.
