Sparrows Nest to North Dene's

The day was overcast to begin with but eventually brightened up. S/N proved very sparse but did manage 2 CHIFFCHAFF, LONG-T-TIT and one JAY came on in close. Plenty of calling WREN'S and DUNOCK. I still wonder about the so called conservation of this area. The undercutting may well open up the canopy and take all the rubbish away but it does mean there is no where near so much cover. Perhaps my views are to short term.
Flycatcher Alley:  Another 4 CHIFFCHAFF and  several WREN and ROBIN here all calling as where several GREENFINCH and BLACKBIRD.
North Dene's: Best birds of the day here with two fly over MEADOW PIPIT and 3 WHEATEAR flitting about. Managed a pic which is a good change as sometimes these early run birds are a bit in the air so to speak. Also another 6 MEADOW PIPIT near caravans and 23 TURNSTONE in the air.
