Early Migrants - Siberian Chiffchaff

Image
Temperatures have increased over the last couple of days with a southerly flow of warm air.  This coupled with the impending lifting of lockdown restrictions has certainly lifted the spirits. This siberian chiffchaff seen at Broom GPs showed really nicely in the sunlight calling occasionally.  A really great find by Steve Blain. At least six northern wheatear were present on the model airfield just outside of Baldock on the 28th morning, the males looking pristine and such a joy to see them back.

Barn Owl

A real treat tonight when on a glorious evening, a barn owl made its way down the Wallington Road passing close by to our standing location.  It remained in the area for around 20 minutes.
