3 ticks over the valley on a nice morning

On a nice warm morning Jimmy & I head off to Fishers Green & spend a nice 3 hours watching loads of small birds flitting about in the bramble.
We start off in the Bittern hide & soon see many Reed Warbler popping from reed to reed in front of the hide. We scan the trees in the hope of seeing a Hobby or two but not today.
Off to walk round to the brambles & soon find lots of Garden Warbler along with Whitethroat, Lesser Whitethroat, a pair of Bullfinch show well.
A walk down to the weir gets us our first Swifts of the year when we see many flying over the water.
Three more ticks for the year gets me up to 201.
