Redwing, Rodley Nature Reserve - Sunday 17th January 2016
The snow and ice tends to concentrate birds in certain places, especially water birds, which added extra interest to the WeBS count. It's always nice to be out birding in the snow (well, fallen snow, if not blizzards), regardless of the bird numbers, and we had quality if not quantity. The reserve looked great in the snow, so I took few landscape photos as well as the birds.
