Common sandpiper at Brading this evening. Plus a scattering of wheatear (8), greenshank (3), blackwit (7)

Distant - common sand with a blackwit

Long tailed tit - I'd been trying to photograph one for a while without much success - always seem restless, but this one arguably posed

East Wight - A.M

First stop Sandown canoe lake

Heard a willow warbler singing. Then saw it. My first of the year, but a few have already been seen locally and nationally.

Second stop was Bembridge down. Two willow warblers there too. And more along the footpath near Gander down.

West high down - showery - AM

Fairly devoid of any 'spring migrants,' be it on the deck or flying over. But just as I was leaving I heard tacking - a ring ouzel - and it took a while to locate it visually, but eventually i saw it.

Brading NR/Laundry lane - after work P.M

Pretty quiet but a pleasant spring evening.

Required some patience - cetti's warbler shows briefly
