First Redstart of the season for me along West Yatton Down, they seem more difficult to track down this year! Marsh Tit seem to be doing well with at least 2 birds in with the tit flock. #wiltsbirds

Has to be a contender for one of the most beautiful songbirds- the Blackburnian Warbler. Really nice to see these warblers in Wisconsin on their migration!
