25th April - sunny spells am, showers pm, 13C, light/breezy westerly

Willey; about 0900h a single Swift flew over the fields heading westerly.  A Robin is now sitting on a nest made in a hay rack full of hay - very cosy.

Stanford Reservoir; the launch of the second raft took place today, we now need some Terns to come and stay nest, as they did in the past.  A nice big mixed hirundines flock over the reservoir, sometimes high, sometimes over the water, then a Swift joined them too.  Because of the cool and breezy conditions not too many passerines were showing or in song, but the usuals were about.

A Common Sandpiper was on the dam.
