Success Upon The Hill From Hades

Picked the right day for both heat and birds this morning. 😃.
Got a singing Garden Warbler in the top row of bushes. This is only my second such record the first being on the Ned Hill track some 12/13 years ago. A Grasshopper Warbler reeled twice not too far away.


60% of the NW top area has been excavated and all shrubs and bushes eradicated. If scrapes appear I can only be happy. Of course other developments may be afoot.

1 each Curlew Lapwing Moorhen & Reed Bunting. 3 Whitethroat ditto Skylark. Several Goldfinch couple Linnet.

Ogden Water had one Oystercatcher over otherwise was down to several LBBG.
A pr Grey Partridge & 2 Skylark on the rough ground before the golf course. 1 possibly 2 f Redstart on the top end of the fence at  Carrs Beck 😍.
c12 WW throughout.
