The Spotted Flycatcher was still present in the wooded area at Yeovil Openspace this afternoon, as was the singing Lesser Whitethroat on Thatcham Close (the latter was heard only). Also of note at the Openspace were 12 Blackcaps, 4 each of Chiffchaff and Goldcrest and 2 Greenfinch. Greenfinch does not usually stay here this late, so perhaps they're thinking of breeding this year.
