A classic day on the patch of departing winter visitors and newly arriving spring migrants. The first (1) ♂ Swallow this year was at Wassell Grove Pools early this morning (a new earliest arrival date at Lutley) and a superb flock of (11) Waxwings dropped in at 09.47am before flying off➝ WSW.
Visible Migration/migrant totals:-
1 Swallow
3 Chiffchaff
11 Waxwing ➝WSW
31 Fieldfare ➝N/NE
13 Redwing (12➝N)
2 Redpoll sp ➝SSE
15+ Meadow Pipit ➝N
