Gropper

May the 4th be with you

After yesterday mornings poor results, I thought I'd do an afternoon shift.
It wasn't any better to be fair!
Nothing in the redstart hedge bar 2 magpie, from 3 attempts.
Grasshopper warbler singing and showing really well on the bottom of the hillside, & Whinchat was back.
Still stuck on 144. What will be next? Greenshank?

Saturday 3rd May

The day got underway with a mass search for the ring ousel but to no avail.
Old Astley lane horse field, back of hillside and the hillside its self were all cleared by 9.30 and a further walk round lowther was fruitless.
Little gull on the eastern reedbed was bird of the day, but nothing new added.
