First Spotted Flycatcher this morning was one in Hubbards Hills and one other near Raithby Lake. Also a single female Wheatear in the sheep field just north of Raithby Church. Only 2 each of Lesser Whitethroat and Whitethroat and one Willow Warbler but plenty of singing Chiffchaffs and Blackcap. Only 7 House Martins and 8 Swallows, so still quite a few to come. 3 Yellow Wagtails.
Particularly enjoyed a cock Reed Bunting peering out from the flowering oil seed rape. Almost as rare as Spotted flys as a breeder around Louth.
