Awful first thing - no ringing and no vis and the latter just did not get going at all today other than a few albas. A big fat Garden Warbler the best of the 'new' arrivals and the Yellow-browed Warbler gave occasional sequences of calls and one excellent view, but not when the visiting hordes were about at lunchtime!
