A pair of
Ring-necked Parakeets seen 30 yds inside Sussex this morning. They took a bit of finding but they showed well in the end. About 50 yds into Surrey another pair of Parakeets outside their nesthole.
The top 2 photos shows 1 of the 2 Sussex Parakeets and the bottom photo showing the Surrey pair with their nesthole to their right.
Nearby (West Sussex) were 3 Lesser Spotted Woodpeckers (2 males, 1 female) all within 50 metres of each other with regular drumming and calling going on. Also a few Siskins, Redpolls and Redwings about.
Male Lesser Spotted Woodpecker. The photos really do not show the beauty of these birds.
