Blackcap's back


Blackcap, originally uploaded by Roger B..

I'm not sure whether this is the same blackcap that was regular visitor to our garden in early March. When he disappeared about a month ago, I assumed that he must have been a wintering bird.

According to the BTO, blackcaps that spend the winter in the UK "are visitors from central Europe rather than British breeders who have stayed on".

Anyway, it's good to have a blackcap around again - even if he does keep bullying the smaller birds!
