Another week.....

After an initial burst of north to east winds, westerlies have set in again, along with the inevitable drop in expectation. A search locally beginning of the week turned up nothing more than migrant Willow Warbler and Lesser Whitethroat. Work took me to the west of the county, and subsequently connecting with Montagu's Harrier together with 2 Hobby, Marsh Harrier and Common Buzzard. Thursday I had an appointment in Kelling High street, just in time for the Lesser Grey Shrike to be relocated.
