A bit of a mad day... Black-Winged Stilt, Redstarts, Pied Flys, Sedge Warblers, buckets of Willow Warblers... not sure who found the Stilt (ta to AH for the text) but thanks to GH & C&ME for finding the birds at Northcommon Farm, PD for telling me where the Grasshopper Warbler was (even though I dipped it!), the chap who showed me the Whinchat in his scope..the bloke who said the Pied Fly was showing well in Southampton when it wasn't (did later apparently!), the Short-Eared Owl for ending the day on a high and Uncle Tom Cobley and all, cracking day! What's in store for tomorrow! (Work you idiot, you spent most of today birding!)
