Whooper passage

...has passed me by...so far?

Eyes to the skies on the walk and from the bedroom but nothing appeared. It seems most birds passed further West with a remarkable c800 logged at Wilsic in S. Yorks! I'm still Chiffchaff checking and Wheatear waiting and hopefully a Sand Martin won't be too far away.

The weather late afternoon was superb with 15C showing on the car thermometer on my trip to Tesco. This raised hopes even more for the coming days. No doubt over-optimistic but there you go.

9 more days of lockdown and then hopefully the Spring Birding can commence in full.

Hopefully there's still a few magnificent Whooper Swans to journey North tomorrow. Fingers crossed...
