As we got home we received a text from Micky Baldock to say that he had found a singing Nightingale (141st) at Bishopstone Glen, 200 metres from our back garden. We just about heard it when we arrived and also saw 20 Blackcaps, 4 Chiffchaffs and 1 Sedge Warbler. On our return home a Red Kite flew W over our garden.
