Wheatear
Whinchat
Pipistrelle Bat
Yellow Wagtail
A lovely day spent at Kilnsea with a wheatear before we had even parked the car. Onto Kilnsea wetlands with more wheatears, a couple of whinchats, 2 ring ouzels, 2 pairs of red-breasted mergansers, 10 whimbrel and lots of little terns. A male redstart was at the farm, although it remained either in the long grass or hidden in an apple tree covered in blossom ! A pipistrelle bat was also on the wall of the farm, warming in the sun, then flew around hunting. An unusual sight for midday. A female redstart was at the Canal Hide along with more wheatears and this yellow wagtail.
Afraid still no cuckoo or turtle dove yet this year.
