Hilfield May 6

Very good day at Hilfield today, heard Tawny and Barn Owl last night, swallows and house martins around in good numbers today. A first spotted flycatcher of the year appeared in the woods, where there were also blackcaps, chiffchaffs and buzzards. I also saw great spotted woodpecker, greenfinch, stock dove and a new bird for me at Hilfield, two linnets.
