7th June - cloudy am, clearing slowly to give sunny pm, light ENE, 18C

Willey; evening
A Kestrel and Red Kite were hunting over the grass being picked up for silage.

Stanford Reservoir; afternoon.
A great find by Chris Hubbard today, a singing Marsh Warbler near the Leics reedbed.  It was often heard singing, in the bushes right next to the path, but very difficult to see.  A couple of brief views as it sat on the edge of the bush were enough to enable many species to be ruled out, and the song confirmed it.


A Little Grebe was near the dam, also two Mistle thrushes and a Hobby overhead.
