Saturday 16th April 2011 - Shenstone news

I was unable to get around the patch today due to other commitments but here is a round up of sightings by fellow birders:

2 Wheatears (1♂ & 1♀) still present at Stanklyn Lane paddocks this morning (TMH)

1 Yellowhammer and 10 Linnets were present at Stanklyn Lane paddocks early afternoon.  2 Common Whitethroats, Blackcap and Chiffchaff were present along Heath Lane.  Little Owl was seen in the usual area (MP)
