Napton on the Hill

A window of opportunity this morning so decided to re-visit Napton in the hope of Spring Migrants. Arriving at 0600 it soon turned into a glorious, warm morning but that is where the positives ended! The steep path is getting muddier and very slippy, so my decision to wear wellies was a good move, and yes, I did stay upright! Apart from Swallow, Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler and Blackcap all was quiet. Most interesting sighting was a flyover Shoveler. Stayed until 0800, notching up 29 bird species before heading to Draycote.
