Lockdown day 33 - return of the Garden Warbler

The first of the returning Garden Warblers have been seen and heard in the last few days. Simon had the first I'm aware of on Wednesday (22nd) and I've had birds at Clough Wood and Hellbank Plantation in the last couple of days.
Arguably one of our most nondescript birds but it has a lovely song, similar to Blackcap but a little faster.
Still no Swifts, but I did hear another Cuckoo yesterday, and hopefully some Spotted Flycatchers should be on their way although they have been in short supply the last couple of years.
