Every day is different however and I'd only been at the reed-bed for 15 minutes, when all three adults flew in, initially landing in the shrubs next to the hide!
They then dropped into the reed bed! Sadly keeping quite low out of view....
.....then almost immediately flying to the far side!
A couple of minutes later they flew high in the direction of Topsham! And despite staking the reed-bed out until 3.30, they never returned! With rain moving in, I moved out!
A pair of Stonechats were keeping the Chiffchaff company, occasionally sitting up well! Here's the male....
And the female....
Oh well, it could have been worse with a complete no show??
