I'm always hopeful at this time of year to go to Black Down with the expectation that there might be one of the scarcer migrants pitching in. I trudged around this morning without a sniff of anything and was returning to the car after 90 minutes when only a Chiffchaff and a Whitethroat had made it to the list. Then the last part of the reservoir track gave me a brief view of a Whinchat, which is always a good bird to see and not a common bird in this part of the county, I searched around to get better views but it had simply disappeared but it made up for what otherwise would have been a very quiet morning.
