A busy day so little time, but a nice surprise mid-afternoon - I found a male Stonechat atop of a low bush in a field cross hedge - east of the village. This was really nice to see as Chats in this area are very scarce even on migration, none to two a year is normal. This is the first record for this farm area, last autumn I found one in late September about two miles away.
This morning I noticed 13 swallows on the telegraph wires. A heron was feeding again at the top pond.
