0615 - 0845 overcast, occasional light rain, warm
....and 'is bird is a female Blackcap....first I have seen this year and it was at the copse on long straight with a male singing over the back....so...'ee's shacked up....though I'm pretty sure most of them are anyway....but nice to see the female...
Other than that nothing really new....
Warbler count....
Chiffchaff 33
Blackcap 15
Willow Warbler 2
Cettis Warbler 1
Not surprised back down to two Willow Warblers....the 'spare' from yesterday was not really singing from a patch that would suit.....so I'm sure its moved on somewhere, perhaps around the site or maybe to fields....and trees.....further away....I'm sure more will be along shortly....
Another Swallow...nice....nearly time to see groups of them buzzing around....
On the water....as promised I counted the Tufted Ducks.....59....1 Pochard, 9 Shoveler and 3 Mandarin Ducks....
