Burnham Beeches
Spotted flycatchers have been reported for the last two years in the Beeches with no specific location given, so on a late-afternoon walk I tried the glade where I last saw one at least ten years ago.
Nothing there - but I moved gradually outwards and this one was about 100 metres away.
Also present was a large mixed flock containing yellow-cheeked blue and great tits - and three lurking jays. A chiffchaff was feeding scattered, calling fledglings and a swift hunted over the tree-tops.
