2 Whitethroats sang from territories near farm buildings. Goldfinch, Linnet, Skylark and Stock Dove (11) were relatively numerous with 3 of the latter singing. A Cuckoo sang intermittently and Tree Pipits (7) gave good views as did a feeding male Green Woodpecker. A Raven pair were also near the flash.
A feeding group of c200 Starlings, including many young, was nice to see and Lapwing (5) and a Curlew are were present although no confirmation of breeding success yet. A new Yellowhammer pair were nest building at the southern end and 3 Swift fed overhead.
3 Stonechats (male + pair) were on territory, a Redstart sang from Roundabout plantation and a Garden Warbler gave good views near the farms. Finally, the Wood Warbler remains on territory in Greno Wood giving extended song bursts.
