the weather has definitely warmed up - we recorded six different butterfly species today, along with 75 bird species.  Warblers were well represented, with the resident Cetti's warblers joined by chiffchaffs, blackcaps, common whitethroats, willow and sedge warblers.  A few swallows were spotted, as were some little ringed plovers, corn buntings and marsh harriers.  What will tomorrow bring?
