3, possibly 4 Spoted Flycatchers in Area 30/Old Tennis School, all very active in lovely sunshine.
In same area: 1 Juvenile Whitethroat, and 20+ Willow/Chaffs, all also VERY active.

Area 24 1 Whitethroat and 6-8 Willow/Chaffs

Area 28 1 Wheatear
I wonder where they were earlier.

Hiding? The weather was perfect for fly catching, so perhaps that was it...

I wish I'd stayed a wee bit longer to see the Wood Warbler!
I wish the warbler had stayed longer as well. My views were all to brief.
