On Monday Adrian T had two Mistle Thrushes singing near the Water Treatment Works. I was out late up the valley looking for owls but with no joy, although there was several Snipe that I heard coming out of their roosts at dusk.
On Thursday Adrian T found our first Little Ringed Plover of the year. A highly anticipated sighting, but unfortunately it didn't stay very long.
Friday morning John recorded our first Blackcap of the year with a singing male along the river.
The Marsh Tit was recorded singing on a few days but ranged widely aross the site from the wood, to scrub east of the river and at the Water Treatment Works.
Sand Martins passed through in small numbers most days this week, with a group of 20 seen by Mike P on Friday during a rain shower.
