Whitethroat on 6 April!

Even easier for The Lodgers to get back than Cuckoo will be for us, but a Whitethroat on 6 April?! Madness!

It sang quietly, out of sight, for me 3 times at lunchtime today; I was going to let this one go (I hadn't definitely ruled out some mega Sylvia!) but an email from Chris Gregory let us know that he'd gone a step further by actually managing to clap eyes on it, in the same area. No Subalp then, but the earliest for Norfolk this year (per BirdGuides) - seems this Challenge is throwing up some interesting migrant dates!
