Whitethroat. Welcome back, my trans-Sahara migrating friend!
Marsh Marigolds
A very smart purple-blue-green-black Pheasant
This Chaffinch was a bit coy, hiding behind a twig...

A truly splendid visit to Castor this morning. Two Grasshopper Warblers (the first of many) reeled in the scrub. A Nightingale started up - made me shudder and then grin like an idiot. Lesser Whitethroat rattled away in a hawthorn bush, but evaded capture on Compact Flash card... A Cuckoo sang, getting a bit over-excited and going into that crazy chuckling they do.
Many Whitethroats, Blackcaps, Chiffchaffs and Willow Warblers, but no Garden Warblers... can't be long now, surely?
