1,122 Cormorant went out to sea fishing early on. No sign of any migrants although 3 Mute Swan headed out then north & 2 Greylag geese flew north with both of these species prone to spring wanderings in search of new sites. 2 Goldcrest still with us. Late news for yesterday afternoon is of the first couple of Small Tortoiseshell butterflies of the year.
Oak Beauty can be common in deciduous woodland early in the season but we don't get many here.
