Had a decent walk/ search around usual W Warb territories today in c/booth and not a single one! Only 1 Blackcap singing also.

But noticed 2 House Martins over Goodshaw Lane at 12 noon and 6 H martins over same area at 4.30 this afternoon. Plus 1 Swallow.

I cant remember ever, in 45 yrs of birding in c/booth, seeing House Martins before Willow Warblers here!!

Only had 1 Chiffchaff singing here so far for 1 day and thats moved on.. Strange spring.
