At Bury Down the Corn Buntings were quite vocal and I saw at least 5 individuals as well as 3 male Yellowhammers.
At Combe Wood the Willow Tit's were being very elusive, the best I could do was hearing one briefly, although I did pick up 2 Marsh Tits.
One the way back home I drove down the Combe Wood valley and had to turn around because of flooding - good idea. I parked up and nonchalantly walked along the road and then hear a Marsh Tit. On the side of the road I found the Marsh Tit then two other birds came to my attention and the buffy underparts indicated possible Willow Tit.
I followed the birds along the road and then finally they both started calling - classic Willow Tit call. One of them showed extremely well down to a few metres.
By the way I managed to acquire a puncture on this trip with required a) a puncture repair which didn't work and b) a new tyre.
