Looks like the male Wheatears are moving through now, all tonights birds at Soil Hill were males.
No sign of gropper round the back dave.??A big move of wheatears this week ,keep an eye out for Greenlands next week onwards.
All male Wheatears today both at Swales and Stodfold, some real belters. Didn't get round the back today Andy for the gropper but will give it a go next week
