DT, where I've most reliably come across willow warblers in the last couple of years is in trees and bushes low down in hilly areas. Noticed loads of them in trips last year to the Shropshire hills, Kinder Scout and Scafell Pike.

All the Raptors are circling ;-) Do they know something we don't??? ;-) :-)

Keep waiting and scanning the skies for the return of the swifts..... maybe a while yet here, but so looking forward to hearing them again :-)

We saw a goldfinch on a country lane around half a mile from home this afternoon. I've never seen one around here before.

I saw a goldfinch this morning too. I suspect they are a lot more common down here :-)

We've got quite a few - regulars on the sunflower heart & nyger seed feeders if you want us to send them your way.
We did have a flock of 30-40 a few weeks ago, but I suspect they were just taking advantage while passing through.
