March 18th

I had hoped for the first Chiffchaff to be singing or the first Sand Martin's of the year feeding over the mere but alas it was thick with fog and not much bird activity except for a mateing pair of Sparrowhawk. I did manage a rather distant foggy shot of them amongst the trees but nothing to write home about.A pair of Bulfinch a single Mistle Thrush and a pair of Song Thrush were the only other birds worth reporting.
