A lot of them around here these last few days, I was always told a precursor to bad weather, unsure of the truth in that though.

Well we get them every year .... and isn't there usually bad weather in winter?A lot of them around here these last few days, I was always told a precursor to bad weather, unsure of the truth in that though.
Yes that seems to be the old saying down here, we get them every year too but there are flocks of 200+ here, more numbers than normalWell we get them every year .... and isn't there usually bad weather in winter?
Yep, decimated several fields of OSR locally..... and my BB mix....Field fares here in good numbers . They like the stubble turnip fields as the sheep graze them .
Also pigeons on rape like we’ve never seen before . Wonder if the lack of acorns this year has made them start early on rape .
200... that's just the outriders here...Yes that seems to be the old saying down here, we get them every year too but there are flocks of 200+ here, more numbers than normal
I can only think you haven't been looking, they arrived at least a month ago. They caught me out a bit or at least made me realise how far behind I had got with things. I was thinking my apples that were still on the trees were safe enough as the varieties left didn't have a habit of falling off. Then the fieldfares turned up. (they eat apples if you weren't aware)not seen a field fare or redwing yet leices.
