London WWT

A first visit to the London WWT since moving to the area in search of early Spring migrants.  It was a dull day across London and didn't feel at all Spring-like.  There was however a few interesting sightings today.

Six Siskin flew into Alders within the Wildside but it was generally quiet here but for a chanting Cetti's Warbler, and three Common Redshank from the hide. 

It was a little better on the south side, where a Jack Snipe fed out in the open with more no doubt hidden away within the marsh, with a few Common Snipe that were much more obliging.  A Water Pipit was seen distantly from the Peacock Tower, and my first singing Chiffchaff was in voice on the walk round the southside.
