Not able to venture out at all this week due to work, but did manage an hour or so this morning.
Highlights in Calvelease copse were the first Chiff Chaffs heard singing, they could have been here for up to a week by now, and at least 3 were present. Also 3 Treecreepers in area. I had, surprisingly, not seen any treecreepers in this area before today, so either they migrate into the area, or have kept a very low profile over the last couple of months.
Sad news that the area of woodland nearest to the Village had a fairly large fire blazing in it this afternoon, caused by locals idiots. Seems to be a favourite hobby here.
Waste Ground had 3 Stonechats. Three of everything today.
Also on local travels found a Kestrel's nest high up in a tree. Was fortunate to be standing still when they visited the site.
