Unfortunately I missed most of the day as I was working!!!
A quick visit to Lollingdon hill on the way home produced
five Wheatear and a ♂ Redstart. If, which I think it is the same has been there for five
days now which is unusual for a spring migrant. I went there yesterday and met
another birder who had been along the hill and had not seen anything so I didn’t
bother as the weather was pretty rubbish. The Redstart seems good at disappearing
for long periods as I experienced on Sunday. At least three Corn Bunting in song.
To qualify my earlier statement, yes I’ve been volunteering
for SOHA this week and visiting various senior
communities around South Oxfordshire and advising them on using technology and
combining it with their particular interest, albeit natural history, collecting
things, craft etc and has been very rewarding. However it does detract from my
normal birding especially at this time of year but I’ll make up for it.
