Not my earliest here but still a welcome sight in my brief walk up the cliffs this morning, a female Wheatear hopped along the fence line at Fan Bay along with 4 Stonechats. 14 Chiffchaff across the site 6 of which seemed to be recently in and feeding up, a few of which were wearing their early spring pollen horns.
The Peregrines co-caught a Woodcock over the sea at Lighthouse down, where a 2nd winter Yellow Legged Gull flew along the cliffs, a few Meadow pipits and siskins arrived in off here but little else. No chaffinches in any number yet for me this spring.
Off to Hong Kong now see you soon.
