Well after two weeks of heavy snow it started to melt and it began to disappear almost as fast as it arrived leaving lots of ice. Blades of grass began to appear and then it started snowing again today.
At lunch time today we had over 20 chaffinches, a dozen or more greenfinches a handful of gold finches, a couple of black birds and a thrush plus a few sparrows and dunnocks.
We've been found by a big family of long tails 12-20 this morning.

A phenological diary for Goathland and surrounds.
About...
Does what it says on the tin. An online diary of nature and garden notes based in and around Goathland, a small village in the middle of the North York Moors. We have a wide range of birds which visit the garden but being surrounded not only by moorland but also pasture land and some woodland including some lovely mature trees means we have an even greater species list that you might expect. The garden is predominantly herbaceous beds with some shrubbery areas and a fair expanse of grass.
