I'd started my search for Spotted Flycatchers a few weeks ago. I knew that I was a bit early, but a bit like Christmas, I get very excited by these birds and the apprehension and build up to them arriving has me looking earlier each year. I am usually then disappointed, but I know that it's just a matter of time.
Thankfully, there are plenty of other birds around to keep my spirits up. Birds like the Redstart, and on this occasion some Tawny Owls. Anyway, I did eventually find my Spotted Flycatchers, and I'll be making regular visits to see how they're getting on over the next few months.
