I failed to see the firecrest on my way to ANR today but saw a mistle thrush and a number of redwings which was some compensation. Look on the Notts Birders website http://www.nottsbirders.net/latest_sightings.html if you want to see all the fuss is about.
This fieldfare was defending his apple tree against blackbirds. I think this must be the first time I have seen all three migratory thrushes in the same trip.
