I went last year and it had an excellent turn out! Can’t go this year but I reckon it’ll be even better!

One for @shroppiemon.bsky.social for his Delbury / Diddlebury diaries. A new old tradition of carols in Diddlebury, #Shropshire with Severn Valley Brass. A lovely community event in the cold evening by the brook. Ageless as Christmas should be

Snaps from this morning's Winter Bird Survey visit to Haughmond Hill near Shrewsbury. It's very different compared to our Breeding Bird Survey visits there. Less vegetation, far fewer obvious birds, but still a delight. Highlight was four Crossbill. #ShropshireBirding @bbs-birds.bsky.social
