First kingfisher in a while today, flashing past along the river. Elsewhere, a multitude of blackcaps and chiffchaffs, and a Cetti's.

Got a bit of a magpie problem. It keeps trying to walk in through the back door! I have to shoo it away. Maybe the previous tenant encouraged it ...

:) Good point. No shiny things in the house tho'. At a previous place I lived; one tried to get in through an open window twice.

I get panicky and jealous when others see migrants before me. I’ll have advanced swift envy soon for sure :-( :-)

LOL at DT. I'm always last, cant believe I had an early housemartin spot this year. No swallows yet, but a couple of days coming up with an early morning run into the hills, near a couple of places I know they nest, so eyes peeled. As for swifts, I'm fairly certain I'm last every year :D

Drumming GSW on the way out this morning, couple of little egrets. Couple of curlew and plenty of redshank in the harbour. But sign of my mystery was it/was it not a greenshank.

Had our first Swallow yesterday. I’ve seen 5 Curlews in the last 3 days apparently a couple of fields near by are a Curlew breeding ground.
