3rd April 2012

A walk around the pool this morning produced a single Swallow (my 1st on the pool this year) & missed a Red Kite which floated over the back fields about 20 mins before!! (Only the 2nd or 3rd record) After that decided to head to Coton Lakes looking for migrants with at least 2 Swallow & 50+ Sand Martin,Chiffchaff & 2 Blackcap before having a quick check from the hide where 1st bird i saw was a Whooper Swan (prob my 1st Warks record for at least 20years) Popped into Kingsbury where i was rewarded with great views of Treecreeper nest building!!
