A keen band of humans caught up with the birds on the Spring Bird Walk last Saturday morning.

Walk guide, Tim Rymer, summed it up –

“Lots of birdsong- Blackcaps, Chiffchaffs, Song Thrush etc, great views of Nuthatches and Stock Doves with nesting/feeding/courtship activity, Green Woodpecker and a few brief snatches of the elusive Firecrest in song.

As happens with birding straight after the walk had ended and people left Marcin, Jan and I saw three Swallows fly through.”

Many thanks to all who helped and came along to listen.

This kestral was spotted by Craig the week BEFORE the walk!
