Garden Birds and Lizardland male Garganey

At 12 noon today, Mon 22nd April, an excellent female Blackcap fed on the fatball at the left back of the garden. At 12.15pm, 3 calling Swallows flew low over the garden and the driveway calling away merrily. A fine male Garganey in the evening at Carlton Marshes Scrape swimming right in a pool was a very welcome new Lizardland tick! On the walk back, a Grasshopper Warbler heard reeling.
