Bosham, just south of Chichester. I visited at the end of the Easter holidays, on what seemed like the first sunny day of April.
One of two Firecrests in the churchyard.
Sparrowhawk over the estuary
A distant Whimbrel, one of two.
My first Holly Blue of the year, also in the churchyard.
This Black Redstart appeared in my garden at dusk. There was one in the autumn too. I would love to think they are the same bird.
Last weekend I visited Sevenoaks LNR for the first time in over 20 years.

I visited Old Lodge on a wonderfully warm and sunny day. Hard to believe it was the same place I had walked around in the winter. The reserve had good numbers of Willow Warbler, Tree Pipit and Woodlark, plus at least two Cuckoos.

Blackcap
Common Redstart, one of two seen
Woodlark
