Pete,

This has got to be the best sightings have seen in and over your garden this past few months, you must be well chuffed!

My garden is nothing like in past years, but not always been well enough or here to watch what comes.

Regards
John

Nice surprise today, Whitethroat in the garden this morning, so that's 4 warblers this year. We used to get Whitethroat and Lesser WT in the 90's but nothing for the last 25 years, so a nice spot. 

Also, at Rimac, 3 pristine summer plumage Wood Sandpipers and a Common Sand. Red Rumped Swallow was seen by other birders and reports of 5 wood Sand and Booted Eagle at Manby wetlands!

A good warbler day in the garden today. The first Willow Warbler of the year, a Chiffchaff as usual, and a Blackcap again at dusk. Not had eyes on a Song Thrush yet, but one was singing distantly.
