Stodmarsh this morning the Nightingale was singing away at the carpark. I had a Barn Owl at the edge of the Alder wood, probably one of the pair in the boathouse, and another birder saw a Little Owl in the same area. At marsh hide there were 2 Greenshank and 3 Pied Wagtail. There were 11 Swift and a few House and sand martin's over.
