Is spring early?

In the garden this morning, hen Blackbirds are gathering nest material so to are Magpies, and Blue Tits are prospecting the nest boxes. By the amount of song and noise, Song Thrushes, Great spotted woodpeckers and Robins are plentiful. On the lawn which is frozen this morning at least 20 Yellowhammers and a solitary Reed Bunting are feeding on corn. And back-up on the feeders a handful of Goldfinches and 2 Siskins fight it out over the Nijer seed. Thats it for a week Lanzarote here we come!
