As spring Pipits and Wagtails are prevalent on the way to work, I will continue to keep my camera in the car.
Red-throated Pipit's are quite numerous

And today, I thunbergi Yellow Wagtails was the predominant Wagtail

And the first of the Spotted Flycatchers
 |
| Spotted Flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) |
 |
| Pallid Swift (Apus pallidus) |
And along the harbour Little Terns were actively foraging.
 |
| Little Tern (Sternula albifrons) |
along with a few Sandwich Terns - this one with a deformed bill
 |
| Sandwich Tern (Sterna sandvicensis) |
Imagine my surprise when another rufous form Common Cuckoo came flying up the coast, almost under the radar of the Little Terns - I was pretty chuffed
 |
| Rufous form Common Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) |
There are a lot of feral Cat's around the harbour - this one looked like a character from Phantom of the Opera
