2 Swallows Don't Make a Summer Either!

Common Whitethroat - all over the place!
I thought there might have been some grounded migrants after all the rain on Sunday night/Monday morning, but there wasn't! had a nice close encounter with a buck Roe Deer who didn't appear to be able to make me out in the gloom, and then had a charming time with a pair of Swallows. There were dozens of male Whitethroats holding territory, so should be a bumper year for them, if all this constant rain eventually stops!

Cheers, Mike.
They were incredibly close - just wish everything came as near as that! Like your Black-tailed Skimmer pics too!
