TILERY WOOD CROSSBILLS

I've been working up on Teesside a lot recently and have been passing this place en route to the A19/A1M and not really paid much attention to it.There's also a rather excellent golden arches restaurant just down the road for my daily latte...nice!
Just off the A689 East of Sedgefield is where Tilery Woods lie. 100yds down the track from the car park a flock of very obliging Common Crossbills, the males out numbering the females 2-1 have been showing well for ages apparently. Also a good place to see Willow and Marsh Tit in the same wood.

some very different slightly photoshopped! and cropped photos 

and some video from 'Shakin' Pod himself

a nice addition to the stalled year list
