Proper Spring passage underway

Brian texted to say he had at least 4 Blackcap new today, I went to the aviation musuem car park and heard a snippet of one burst of song, for a year tick then headed to LFGP, good numbers of Chiffchaff singing all the down, at LFGP I got another year tick with a pair of Shelduck were in the NE corner.

6-8 Buzzard overhead, a Skylark rose above the far landfill, a male Red Crested Pochard flew towards Lodge Wood Lake. 2 Goldeneye dived regularly.

After I left c400 Golden Plover were seen to the far East, a four fold increase on previous maximum counts, but I never got the chance to return.
