Tweet

The redwings have finally appeared in the firethorn this morning, having left it rather late, with there not being much berry left.

Aka pyracantha coccinea, with the coccinea bit presumably some relation of cochineal.

Reference 1: http://psmv3.blogspot.co.uk/2016/12/tweet.html. The last occasion, about a month later than this year. I still feel sure that some years they have come in time to have a feed on these berries, but have yet to check.
