First bird out was a calling CHIFFCHAFF one of three birds calling and two others not calling. Also 2 COAL TIT and a single MARSH TIT. The air was not full of SKYLARK but more than 6 birds about. I would think that there was two pairs of GREEN WOODPECKER and three LINNET put on a show. GOLDFINCH were only flyovers and a single SONG THRUSH was singing well.
A very unusual scene was the DUNOCK family who were acting very interesting with each other. The most interesting thing however was that one bird was singing its plaintive song. Very quietly but persistently, what a lovely song.
But the real joy was nan early TORTISHELL BUTTERFLY and an all round flyer in a beautiful YELLOW BRIMSTONE. The yellow is a YELLOW BRIM
