Bits and pieces

Dawn at Mullock Bridge and Willow warblers singing for the first time but at least 10 at Martins Haven mid afternoon plus a male Blackcap.
Early afternoon at Newgale a Sand Martin patrolling the colony cliff and between Newgale and Nolton at least ten pairs of Stonechat with three pairs in the colliery valley where one male is incredibly black and white and more like a maura but its paired up with a normal female and I didn't get a good sight of its rump. Reminded me a bit of the aberrant birds which were hanging around Marloes Mere for a couple of years.
