Stockbridge Down - Spotfly hotspot !

The end of a hard day's scrub-bashing at Stockbridge Down with Hampshire Conservation Volunteers was rewarded with great views of five spotted flycatcher (Muscicapa striata) - a total of eight individual birds had been seen earlier in the day by Dave Hurst and Ed; willow warbler (Phylloscopus trochilus) and chiffchaff (Phylloscopus collybita) provided added interest.
