Having read about this birds arrival to Woodley, in Stockport, a visit today, 28/01/2006, gave me excellent views. It was the first time I'd got to see this winter visitor from Russia/ Scandinavia. These handsome birds tend to move across western Europe in search of berries, when weather conditions become very severe in their normal feeding grounds.
