Mistle Thrush - 1
Goldfinch - 1
Chiffchaff - 2

A nice change from the garden and hearing one Cuckoo would have been fantastic but hearing two was brill. Oddly we saw very little in the way of raptors, we did expect to see a Buzz but alas didn't. We both enjoyed the sun and warmth it brought. Looking forward to next trip out.

Kind regards

John and DJ :D :D
