this is about the right time, and it was around the 3rd week of march last year that I first heard them, but these could be overwintering birds returning early to their sites, as some have stayed in East Anglia the last few years. I believe they are one of the early migrants though, so if you have sites near you, it may be worth checking out. regards dave |
