Sightings 37 Species: Little Egrets quite active flying about thought they had moved off as not seen them here for a week. I was just saying that we usually have Reed Bunting turn up  by now when one started singing. One or two Siskin and Goldfinch flying about, the niger, after not being touched for sometime, has gone down recently so I was hopeful for a capture but not luck.
