My first Pied Flycatchers of the year, several males and a couple of females were stubbornly in the canopy but at least one descended on the walk along the road - almost too close?
Red Grouse on the Longmynd weren't new but this is the first to pop its head up and not disappear!
Another newcomer to the 2017 local list was Tree Pipit at Clunton Coppice....
Where I was about to be beguiled by my favourite woodland songster!
