A Bit More Action At Ogden

A day that brought back memories of January weather and for the first 35 minutes thoughts of nothing doing again! Usual culprits: Blackcap x 2 and WW plus Chiffchaff x 7 + 5. The Grey Heron was in the same area as the last visit.  

15 minutes before I hit the promenade it picked up considerably. The mystery singer was blasting away again so this time I took a sound recording to try and clarify the varmints identity.

I then got a pair of Swift not too high up and a Cuckoo calling from a distance. I stress it wasn’t the song From A Distance it was the location 🤓.

Also a Swallow, Mistle Thrush, Skylark & Whitethroat.
A Curlew and an Oystercatcher were at Hunter Hill.
