In addition to the first-winter
DUSKY THRUSH present in private gardens for two weeks in December, and the overwintering
PINE BUNTING on private land, a
DARK-EYED JUNCO was also present in the London Area in a Waltham Abbey garden on at least 18-19 December. With two
AMERICAN ROBINS in western Ireland, one wonders how many more rarities are lurking in suburban gardens.
