    Yes - Especially if that was Saturday! Willow Warbler. There were 100's moving through in the morning, never seen so many, Chiff Chaffs were quiet until late Afternoon, Robins were well outdone & most unimpressed by the invasion. A lot did peel off & stick around with 15-20 clearly still in earshot of the feeding station. Should be a good year for these little blighters!
