The Lincolnshire Bird Club

Far Ings this morning 6-15am-1pm.

I was delighted to be stopped in my tracks by a singing Chiffchaff in the bushes behind Reedy Hide . It sang on and off for about 15mins before moving on. It certainly put a smile on my face! Presumably its an over-wintering bird. Couldnt pin down the reported Cettis

Also great views of 2 Marsh Harrier, a brief visit by the young male but the female showed very well on and off all morning

1 Bittern
2 Willow Tit
1 Grey Heron
