The Chiffchaff was only my second of the year. I didn't manage to ring it as I was busy with another bird, but I did get a photo, Hopefully we should manage to catch a few more over the next months, so I'll be able to ring one then. A few more were heard "chiff-chaffing" away throughout the morning.

The last birds of the morning were a flock of 7 Long-tailed Tits. Although this was lovely for the group to see, it is a little worrying, as they should normally be split up into breeding pairs by now. Presumably the continuing cold weather has put breeding on the back foot for a while.
