Terns, Gulls and Warblers.....

Friday 9th May 2008

Last Saturday morning Ian called me out to the back garden, where he pointed out some Swifts to me. Just two of them, but it was nice to see them back again, a bit later than last year. Then we went down to Titchfield Haven, the weather was warm and dry and we saw lots of nice birds. There were various Terns, Gulls, and Avocets...... and not forgetting the warblers.....Reed, Sedge and Cetti's..... all seen and heard.

On Monday afternoon we did the walk at Farlington Marshes, it was very quiet down there. The best finds were some very brightly coloured male Linnets and some Whitethroats.
