After last weeks failed attempt at finding Tree Pipit around the woods (we did hear one but we just couldn't pin it down) probably not helped by a Mountain bike race being held in the woods. This week we were more hopeful as the weather was better and hopefully a few more birds had arrived on site.
Plenty of Willow Warbler were calling (no Whitethroat yet though) plus a couple of Blackcap we did eventually find a bird in the usual area just off the main track along we a fly over group of Redpoll. Too far for a shot but was good to see and hear in full song plus a Tiger beetle was spotted.
Back at the carpark we decided to have a look around the clear fell area as it was another likely spot for Tree Pipit and so it turned out to be with 3 different birds located plus a couple of fly over Crossbill.
