A walk around the Foxton circuit with Michelle between showers produced a first for Foxton! A superb male Whinchat. A few minutes later, an immature male Marsh Harrier flew around the same field before continuing to Thriplow. I cycled down after completing the walk hoping to get a photo, but both birds were gone (the Whinchat seemed to be moving eastwards across the field as we walked). Usual good birds such as Corn Buntings, Skylarks, Grey Partridge, and a singing Willow Warbler heard in Foxton Woods.
