Another slightly quieter week and a bitterly cold and wet end to the week, but a few good birds to keep the interest up.
On Monday John saw our first Swift of the year and possibly a few more passing through the day with 2 and 4 seen at different times later in the day. There was also 3 Yellow Wagtails, White Wagtail, Peregrine and a Common Sandpiper.
Ian found another Wheatear on Tuesday, with 2 Little Ringed Plovers, Common Sandpiper and Swift.
Wednesday morning I was lucky enough to see what I assume is the same Grey Partridge John found last week. Difficult to spot by the troughs in the cattle field and disappearing into the ditch. There was also 3-4 Lesser Whitethroats that day.
A Whinchat was found by Kirsty yesterday and there was also 2 Yellow Wagtails and 2 Little Ringed Plovers.
This morning there was a very brief (few minute) visit from another Arctic Tern. There was also the Whinchat still, Swift and a White Wagtail (Clive), Yellow Wagtail (Adrian T), 2 Common Sandpipers, c.60 Sand Marin, c.80 Swallow and smaller number of House Martins.
