Last Sunday, the 25th of January, once again we took part in the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch.  This annual event takes place in late January and we were delighted to welcome local wildlife expert Joe Beale.  Joe’s involvement with Greenwich Park and the Greenwich Wildlife Advisory Group is very much appreciated by Westcombe Woodlands, along with his expert knowledge of birds.  The morning event lasted for an hour and ended at around 11:15.  The light rain perhaps reduced the numbers of birds that interacted in the woodlands, but species recorded wood pigeon, wren, parakeet, magpie, gold crest, crow, blue tit, jay, stock dove and robin. The accompanying photo shows Joe Beale surveying the woodland sky.
