User's notes
Social group of these Choughs actively feeding / foraging in the litter /soil under Cherry Ballart, amongst Black Nightshade weeds, probably feeding on invertebrates (?) . Nb note Bracket Fungi on Dead Branch in one of the photos. The birds were so focused on feeding / cooperating together, that they completely ignored my presence (I was around 4m away from the group).
