Local Again

So where to today? Flipping typical the sun vanished!

Off first to Hatfield Forest, now I was hoping to hear the first Chiffchaff of the year. Unfortunately I didn't!! I did see Nuthatch, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Green Woodpecker and lots of the usual suspects. There were 7 Great Crested Grebes on the lake.

Now I hope you are sitting down although I had a Cup of Tea I DIDN'T have a bacon sandwich!






After lunch I went to Rye Meads. No Chiffchaff heard there either!! Did see a Green Sandpiper, 2 Great Crested Grebe and a Redshank!

Sounds like it was a good day Pete, a shame about the lack of sun and Chiffchaff though.

Urn! Clearly I would like to pretend I know what one sounds like, but I don't know what they look like. A Chiffchaff that is.
