Lockdown - Day 19

Week 13; 30 March 2020 - Abdullah Al Salem

A quick early morning stop at the Sunbird garden to check out the new spring arrival. 

While waiting was entertained with the very busy Eurasian Blackcap's in the flowering Bottlebrush tree which they just love

Along with the Lesser Whitethroat's

There were also a few Great Reed Warbler's in and around the vegetable patch

Along with some Willow's

A Collared Dove was observed nest building

Then at last the new arrival made his appearance - a stunning Semi-collared Flycatcher
