Pied Flycatchers!

Early morning around the point better numbers of migrants than of late, with Garden Warblers, Blackcap, Common and Lesser Whitethroats, Willow Warblers and Reed Warblers, a Common Redstart was found at the Long Pits per AJG, also Pied Flycatcher there per DS.
Early afternoon the Flycatcher was still present though very elusive, another was found in a private garden, then 2 more were found at Galloways by L & PH both were still present this evening.
Thinking the pines might hold some migrants I joined AJG & SO in a stroll up to the pines seeing just a couple of Willow Warblers and Common Whitethroats and a Bittern which flew over.

  Many thanks to Dave Bunney for allowing me into his garden to photograph the Pied Flycatcher
