A very blustery day with frequent, nasty showers whipping through saw the first
Cuckoo of the year seen around Holland House in the evening but unfortunately it bounced out of the mist nets a couple of times without getting caught; unlike the
Turtle Dove which did manage to get caught - an unusual and not annual capture! Migrant totals included a
Heron, single
Wood and
Common Sandpipers, three
Collared Doves, a
Tree Pipit, a
Sedge Warbler, 4
Lesser Whitethroats, three
Blackcaps, 4
Chiffchaffs, 4
Willow Warblers and a
Pied Flycatcher. The 1st summer
Little Gull and the flock of
Tree Sparrows remained.
Wood Sandpiper
