Flycatchers NFCs

Recently the recorder picked up continuous calls (in every segment) over Ventnor, between 10pm - 2:15am - some identifiable to pied flycatcher. Interestingly, it mirrored recent sessions at Portland and other coastal sites. 

Needs further analysis - but potentially 100s of calls recorded over a four hour period. 
The rain swept in just after the movements. 

Juvenile buzzard - one of two on the wing - Bonchurch
