Saturday 9th January 2021 - Shenstone
Today I decided to undertake a walk around the lanes and fields on the Shenstone side of the local patch. Things were fairly quite on the bird front with just a handful of Fieldfares and Chaffinch along Witch Lane and whilst walking the footpath across the large field that runs towards Podmore I flushed 2 Meadow Pipits.
Curslow Lane was also very quite but I did add Common Buzzard and 2 Red-legged Partridge to the list. Whilst at a mostly frozen Willow Marsh Fishery a single Grey Heron was of note.

Sunday 10th January 2021 - Stone
I was back over at the Stone side of the patch today where I spent some time around the Heath Lane area. The undoubted highlight was seeing 12 Corn Buntings perched on the hedgerow of the model aircraft field alongside. Also present in this area were c.60 Linnet.

Also of note along Heath Lane were 2 Fieldfare, 1 Song Thrush and a Dunnock who was busily picking through the snow in front of a hedgerow to get to food .
