From today’s wanderings. At Cosmeston late morning a Reed Warbler was singing by the main boardwalk, first of the year. Two Green Woodpeckers flew out of W paddock and 2 Jays flew over there, and another Green Woodie called in E paddock. As to butterflies, I noted several Holly Blues and Brimstones and an Orange-tip. This afternoon down at the Bay a Common Sandpiper was along the R. Ely embankment and on the outer barrage rocks was my first Wheatear of the year, a female, and a Rock Pipit.
