25th April - sunny spells, wintry showers, cool NW breeze, 9C

A quick look at the local reservoir this morning produced a Common Sandpiper on the dam, a Cuckoo calling, a male Goldeneye still, more Sedge Warblers singing, 2 Grey Heron, 2 singing Song Thrush, a pair of Treecreepers and Bullfinch, 4 Linnets (2 pair).  Hawking over the water were a good number of hirundines, c300 Sand Martins, c200 Swallows and c100 House Martin.

At lunch a Sparrowhawk was circling a bush in the garden very close and fast trying to flush possible prey.
