A birthday wander around Wilstone was mostly a quiet affair regarding bird on the water with a Barnacle Goose, 2 Common Sandpipers by the hide and a lone Wigeon being of note. It was once past the hide that things picked up. The long hedge in the middle of the hide meadow produced 2 Spotted Flycatcher (my first of the year), numerous Chiffchaff and singles of Lesser Whitethroat and Willow Warbler. In the skies above were 2 Hobby and at least 7 Swift in with 50+ mixed hirundines.
