In terms of birds, I picked out a Spotted Flycatcher early on, then a Chiffchaff singing in the near distance. Quite late for these, but the sun seems to spur them on. I said earlier in the year that I get tired of the Chiffchaff song, but knowing that they will soon depart, made this one a little special.
The Whinchats were still around from the other day, along with plenty of Meadow Pipits and a Tree Pipit. I also got startled by a Roe Deer while I was sat out of view. It broke a twig as it stood up out of the long grass. The air was blue for a moment. A lovely animal though and fantastically wild.
