Blackcaps and Blackwit

Been a busy last few days at work and campaign work. Managed to get out to the Farmlands on Wednesday and yesterday evening briefly, the most notable thing was an influx in Blackcaps- 12+ between the lakes and Mitcham Common and a Black-tailed Godwit on the lake yesterday evening.

Back in Oxford this weekend for Jacob's second birthday. They guys have had a good morning at the Farmlands with Ring Ouzel, Glaucous Gull and Great White Egret this morning and last weekend they had Stone Curlew too.
