In Search of Wheatears!

The title says it all. I went looking for summer migrants this morning. At Splatt Bridge not too much to see certainly no migrants but 40 + Curlew, Marsh Harrier and a couple of tumbling Ravens. I saw 40+ Sand Martins, a Chiffchaff and heard a Cetti’s Warbler up at the Sailing Lake. I then went off on my bike to Hock Cliff looking for Wheatears I go regularly at this time of the year but apart for a soaking no luck! Pictures below are Wheatears I photographed in Pembrokeshire last year.

                                 

Long tiring rehearsal last night for our Community Play. Just about got my lines right but still need to work hard at learning the songs- although not sure if my voice enhances anything. We have near enough rehearsals every night before we open next Friday. There are still tickets if anyone still needs one.

Busy weekend on the football front. Tomorrow a really tough game at Millwall just hope we can continue our good form. We are both going on Easter Monday to watch the game. Fingers crossed for both games COYH!!!
