Tree Pipits

Tree pipits were the latest of the spring arrivals to turn up; two of them were in a tree (appropriately) at Les Vielles Vaures. The redshank and greenshank were still both feeding there as were most of the other migrants viz swallows, house martins, chiffchaffs,blackcaps and yellow wagtails but no sand martins today.
There was no sign of the black woodpecker near Le Gros Fayant but a coal tit and a hawfinch were a welcome sight for me as these species can be elusive.
