Good Fridays Sand Martins.

First time we've been out for a few days, was great to see the Sand-Martins back at St. Gothian Sands, also saw some Swallows but didn't get a shot of them. John managed a distant Sandwich Tern at Hayle Estuary. We went on to Marazion Marsh, there were Cetti's and Sedge Warblers singing everywhere but didn't show. Also saw Willow Warbler and Chiffchaff. Took the mating Speckled Wood, Heron and others at Marazion.

    Thanks everyone for your comments. Although I did the digiscoping, Sue took the Butterflies with her Olympus camera.
    You're right Sam we are off to Romania next week, but hope to get down your way on Monday.
