Plants and animals of Pointfield

An informal survey of the plant and animal life living in or visiting the grounds of Pointfield, Kelso since 2015   

Birds 

House sparrow

Passer domesticus

A rare visitor, always a single individual, to the bird feeders. Yet a large flock of sparrows nest in the dense hedge 300 m up Hermitage Lane. Grey cap to head and white cheek lacking a black spot distinguish it from the tree sparrow.
