Chiff-chaffs at Stockers

Last week at stockers finally managed to connect with 3 of the wintering Chiff-chaffs along the River Colne by the metal bridge with a yellow coloured bird showing features that look to me like the birds we get during the spring and summer which shows how tough this birds can be and a more darker looking bird which was showing features of the more Siberian style bird. Also around on site of note were Red-crested Pochards, Goldeneye, Treecreepers and a Goldcrest both in with the tit and finch flock around the wet woodland area.
