hawthorn ON A TRIMMED-BACK section of lane-side Hawthorn hedge there is a single cluster of small blossoms on the same twig as a few remaining berries.

Half of a flock of 200 or more Fieldfares are stripping the berries from the hedges alongside a lane on the valley side, the other half of the flock are in the neighbouring field.
