2nd + 3rd April


My first few male Wheatears of the year were already singing and displaying on Titterstone Clee in the afternoon of the 2nd.   A little walk along my small section of the River Teme in Leintwardine first thing on the 3rd produced a few bits including a Kingfisher, a Dipper, c15 Sand Martins and pairs of Mandarin and Goosander before a look at Venus Pool produced my first House Martin of the year with 60+ Sand Martins and 10+ Swallows while 2 drake Goosanders were the only other slightly different thing from last time.

I don't often stoop to take pictures of Canada Geese but they were messing around in front of the hide at Venus Pool so I kind of had to!
