Today was the warmest this year so far with a high of 20.9c (my garden)
This morning our first Little Ringed Plover of the year left north from wader scrape. Also present Redshank, a pair of lapwing and at least 3 pairs of Coot on eggs. A fourth pair feeding 4 young were possibly the earliest we have ever had! 4 male Blackcap and 4 male Willow Warbler were singing with around 15 Chiffchaff. (J. Pant/DM Smith/R Laverack)
