The field along Fowlmere Road currently looks great for Dotterel, so I decided to scan it. No joy, but two Wheatears present. Also two pairs of Grey Partridge and a pair of Red-legged Partridge.
On to Fowlmere where there were a good number of Hirrundines (including a single Sand Martin) and the first Turtle Dove was heard.
