There was a juvenile Common Redstart in the hedgerows in west paddock this morning, moving around with a juv Robin. In the dovecote field there was a flock of around 100 Starlings in the trees & bushes – a mixture of adults and juvs. There were quite a few Sand Martins and Swallows feeding over the field there, with one or two House Martins in with them and a Comon Whitethroat was scolding from the brambles near the Medieval Dovecote itself. A couple of Reed Warblers were calling from adjacent the dipping pond.
