Already this morning had 5 Whoopers heading in a North direction over Burton In Kendal at 0635hrs. Also I could here Redpolls, Siskins, Goldfinches overhead, obviously on their way back to breeding territories.
Also forgot to mention yesterday, at early doors I did have a couple of Fieldfare near Dalton Hall.
Went up Hutton Roof and had about 50 Meadow Pipits going through N-NE over one hour (0930hrs-1030hrs. Lots of large Bumblebees and my first Ladybird.
Knot, as fickle as the weather!
