Visited Doffcocker today at around noon and the Grasshopper warbler was reeling for a long time over the back by the dual carriageway.
Also saw 2 pairs of Common tern with no other adults or juveniles present.
Also 2 well grown juv Gc Grebe.
2 willow warbler and 1 chiffchaff.

Took a walk in the poring rain up Belmont road and over scout road. Heard one chiffchaff and two willowarbler plus several reed bunting. Also heard two grasshopper warblers reeling. One was in the field on the left just past the Wilton Arms pub on Belmont road, the other up on scout road halfway towards Smithall Deanne road.
