I haven't been up the Wirral for a week or so but looking at the photos on the website set up for birders has given me plenty of joy.
Hope you enjoy the photos as well. Just keep scrolling down to come across them.

There were sightings of two Ospreys around the Wirrell estuary yesterday, one which appeared to be heading towards Burton, so may well be worth a visit.
"27/03 10:44 Cheshire : Osprey, Hoylake
one distantly over sea off Dovepoint
27/03 12:55 Clwyd : Osprey, Connah's Quay NR (Permit Only)
one flew towards Burton (10:30)"

Not heard or see any Chiffchaffs here yet but the frogs have arrived next field and very noisy in the evenings not sure where there is any water there bt we do get Toads in the village Lavoir and LPO got funding to build a underground crossing on the village road so the toads can get to the Lavoir and other water places safely.
Did see 8 Black Kites flyiing around a village we went through the other day and on the way about 40 Cattle Egrets in a field next to the road they have seemed to settle in this area in the last two years.

A Coal tit(singular) I have only once seen one in my garden, forests, copse & woods yes, many but it was great watching it doing zoomies onto the sunflower hearts snatch & fly back to the Stellata tree, It looked as if it was in full Ninja suit. Black cap & breast with white triangular patches under the eyesππ». 4 collared Doves this year too, only a solitary 1 last year. It certainly proves the need for feed in gardens.

It has been a good couple of days for us up in D&G, spotting Nuthatches, Pink Footed Geese, Grey Herons, lots of Buzzards and Red Kites, hearing both GSWs and Tawny Owls on a couple of occasions and culminating with the sight of the pair of Ospreys at Threaves Castle.
