In January, mixed flocks of Blue Tits, Great Tits and Long-tailed Tits move around foraging for food, and may be accompanied by Nuthatches and Goldcrests. Winter thrushes, like Redwings and Fieldfares, are still about, and both Mistle Thrushes and Song Thrushes may be heard singing. In general the following Garden Birds are often spotted on the British Isles: Collard Dove, Blue Tit, Chaffinch, House Sparrow, Goldfinch, Wood Pigeon, Great Tit, Starling, Robin and of course the Blackbird.
