GREENHAM COMMON

Paid a morning visit to Greenham Common last Saturday, sadly no dartford warblers seen, but not many other birds either, probably due to the fact that the common was being  invaded by several hundred people emarking on a 'Park Run'! 

Did manage a nice view of a stonechat though, also a greenfinch and linnet.
