When I'm over the coast these days it's always a pleasure to sneak in some peaceful birding, and this time I managed a couple of brief sessions back at the old manor.
Migration was evident on both occasions, with a Redstart in Long Hedge (above) , a Grasshopper Warbler in Long Lane, lots of hirundines and warblers arriving, as well as two Cetti's (below) battling it out at the Dams and plenty of other spring joys to behold.
