Garden/country lane birding around Landshipping

The last couple of days have been absolutely glorious here - spring has well and truly sprung. A real pleasure to be out in the garden or undertaking exercise walks along the country lanes.

Chiffchaffs are increasing in numbers daily here, blackcap numbers too - two males singing in our garden hedges this morning. We heard our first willow warbler in the valley below our place today. All the resident species are just singing their heads off. Surprisingly still no obvious hirundines noted here just yet.
