This evening I ambled around the corner and watched the Short-eared Owl hunting over the fields again along with a Barn Owl, Magpies, Jackdaws and Pheasants. A Green Woodpecker bounded across the field into the far wood by Reffley Reservoir and I listened to my first Reed Warbler singing in a reed bed close to me! Long-tailed Tit and Wren were also seen. Lots of Muntjac Deer around. At 8pm the huge noise of pots and pans being banged for "Clap for Carers", resulted in lots of Wood Pigeons erupting over the tree tops. Walked home at the sun was setting.

LOCKDOWN DAY 31 – COVID-19
Two birders kindly gave me a bit more info re last night's Wood Warbler – Geoffrey P. let me know that it was reported on Birdguides as being near Reid Way, North Lynn Industrial Estate and also when I texted him, Jim S. said the same thing. Jim checked out the site this morning and this evening with no sign at all. Such a pity. It would have been awesome to see a Wood Warbler and in King's Lynn too AND only a short cycle ride away!!!
