A busier morning than the last week was a nice start to April. Finally seeing some willow warbler movement with at least 4 around the reserve amongst 15 chiffchaff and a couple of blackcap. 2 black redstarts were new in, including a fairly cracking male. The other bird was a young male singing from the fort throughout the morning. A few finches were moving, with 17 siskin being the first for days, with some briefly alighting in the Obs trees, though not long enough for photos.
Clouded Drab is a variable species noted here in small numbers at this time of the year.
Birds Ringed: Blackcap 3, Chiffchaff 8, Linnet 3, Willow Warbler 3.
