Settled


Several calm days. Cold starts, sunny by midday, and clear skies at night. Some birds are moving straight through e.g. Ring Ouzels and some have not appeared in any numbers so far.


Pied Wagtail



Grasshopper Warbler

Only one of these back so far on my patch.






Ruddy Shelduck

This wandering pair cause a bit of a surprise to the non-birders.



Shoveler


Why don't birds of prey simply attack and kill the pesky mobbing crows?


Willow Warbler

A lot more of this singers arrived late last week.


Song Thrush

No late mornings with one of these singing in the garden.


Dark-edged Bee-fly





Comma

Slightly worn but ready for take off.
