chaffinch & brambling flocks
These photos were taken in February 2009 in poor weather conditions. They show sections of an estimated 300+ mixed flock of chaffinches and bramblings feeding on the stubble fields in Over Wallop, Hampshire. There were about 30 bramblings in the flock. A large number would fly to the ground, feed, then fly back to the safety of the surrounding trees. This behaviour was repeated many times.
