Sparrow's Nest Flycatcher

At 10am this morning, I was walking up Arnold's walk and it was good to see Robert Wil, who kindly showed me in Sparrow's Nest where he had seen the Pied Fly earlier and looking up from my favourite Holm Oak trees overlooking the bowling green we saw the excellent Pied Flycatcher flick up onto a high perch and it was viewed for a minutes before it flitted off again. 
We also saw 2 Treecreeper here.
A Wheatear was seen on the new caravan park area, 3 LBB Gulls on the Oval and 1 Wheatear was seen on the Netposts near Birds Eye.
We later saw OFB and later walking back through Arnold's walk, 2 Jay were seen.
In the garden this afternoon, a Small White butterfly and Silver Y moth were seen.
The young House Martins under the eaves of our house (second or third brood this year?) are getting very vocal, surely about to fledge, very soon?
