Tuesday started promisingly in the paddocks with nuthatch, goldcrest, blackcap, chiffchaff and willow warbler accompanying the loose tit flock. However the barleyfield did not live up to expectations with only an unseen calling whitethroat worth mentioning.
Wednesday was the reverse with little to report from the paddocks bar 2 nuthatch but the was quite lively. For once the loose flock was by the wetland which made observation easier with other birds on the western border.
Chiffchaff 8+
Willow warbler 2+
Blackcap 4 (all female)
Otherwise the dark kingfisher flew out of the wetland as I arrived and the goldfinch flock of about 20 were prominent.
