Quietish!

Cloudy, 13°, breezy WSW.

Rather quiet out there today and a little chillier than of late!

A couple of Common Whitethroat out at Lollingdon with hopefully more to arrive.

A single Lesser Whitethroat heard and 16 Swallow and 6 House Martin overhead.

A Redshank flushed from the flooded (soon to be muddy) field by a dog walker. I was around 200 m behind and just heard it and briefly saw it as it flew off west. A Lapwing also seen near the flooded field and a Goldcrest singing in the Millennium Wood.

A couple of Swallow regular over the garden now.

Mammals: Brown Hare, Hedgehog (in garden) and Roe Deer.

Butterflies: singles of Orange Tip and Small Tortoiseshell.
