The spring’s first migrant was a singing Chiffchaff, heard in the garden today, though not seen. Brimstones were out in good numbers with several seen at various locations.
Late afternoon I went with the kids on a Fowlmere Bullfinches trip to see Red Kites coming to roost in Northamptonshire (on the road between Brigstock and Benefield.) About fifty birds were seen before we tried and failed to see Owls (though a Barn Owl was seen by some.)
