Shanklin down etc

Despite a good hunt around I was rewarded with nothing new really. A larger number of tree pipits early on, but in the murky conditions, they may well have been the same birds hanging around unable to move on. The sun did break eventually so a pleasant walk. Hirundines were trickling through in largish numbers....



Very short vid of a tree pipit over Nansen Hill - heard in the first second and requires volume.
