It was one of those days at the farmlands- loads of common birds about but nothing too unusual- apart from the fact that there were lots of common birds about. So the tally went 25+ Chiffchaff (pic 1)+, 10+ Willow Warbler, 1 Sedge Warbler, 1 Reed Warbler, 10+ Whitethroat (pic 2), 1 Lesser Whitethroat, 3 Blackcap, 1 Wheatear, 1 Whinchat, 4 Swift, a passage of 90+ Swallow, 10+ Sand Martin, 15+ House Martin, 4 Greenshank, 4-5 Green Sandpiper, 2 Dunlin, 3 Ringed Plover, 1 Snipe, 1 Common Buzzard (pic 4), 2 Hobby (pic 3), 3 Kestrel, 3 Sparrowhawk and the bird of the day was Goldcrest- the first one I have seen on the farm this year!
