An enjoyable morning at Otmoor in the sunshine today gave me several new year ticks. The air was full of song, although many birds remained hidden. It was nice to see a whimbrel, pointed out to me by another birder as I've not seen one for several years. I was also delighted to find a small tortoiseshell butterfly, somewhat of a rarity these days.
