It was good to catch up this evening with the Hooded crow that Brian reported on Saturday, still at the Dale end of Dale Airfield, in a field to the right of the entrance. There were also 2 Whimbrel, and a high number (for this location) of 17 Chough.
As I haven't posted on here for some time, and some of this information could be useful for visiting birders, or those unsure where to look, here is a round-up of some of the birds I have seen, or heard, fairly recently, most of them migrants:
12th April - Grasshopper Warbler on the Deer Park.
17th April - male Redstart singing for about 10 minutes near the smallholding on the path below the quarries in Rosebush.
19th April - Reed warbler and Sedge Warblers at Westfield Pill.
21st April - Tree Pipit in the large clearing in Minwear Woods. Also Yellowhammer on Folkestone Road.
24th April - male Pied Flycatcher - about 200 yards from the entrance to Pengelli Forest.
26th April - 3 Swifts near East Blockhouse, Angle, along with a few House Martins and plenty of Swallows.
27th April - 8 Whimbrel at the Gann.
