Most recent sighting was 4 near Hyndburn sports centre at Church near Accrington yesterday. There just seems to be a handful in the north west at the moment, but keep looking! You never know.

Not in our area but I was lucky to see 1 with 6 male Chaffinches from the house of my father in law in Huddersfield--a nice surprise

There seems to have been a significant influx onto the east coast over the last couple of days. If you know of any berry bushes around the area, it's worth keeping an eye on them.
