May 27th 2008

Planned to meet Steve Seal mid morning but I arrived late so straight to cafe for coffee and chat joined by Dave Hutton and Bob Hazell and between them they had already seen 2-4 thousand Swifts, 100 Sand Martin, Oystercatcher, 8 Common Tern, Common Sandpiper, Great-spotted Woodpecker and two Yellow Wagtails while after Steve and Dave had left for the Stilt Sandpiper in Leicestershire we were joined by Peter and Linda Price who had heard at least two Cuckoo's and seen a Hobby. As for me I spent two and half hours chatting eventually lifting me bins to count 9 Common Tern and a Buzzard before leaving so thought Id better show willing so checked the grounds of the Dunchurch Park Hotel and Conference Centre, Dunchurch finding a Spotted Flycatcher and Coal Tit.
