Double Whammy

Having got out a bit late this morning I rushed down the lakes, keen to get down to the bottom end only to get a text from Nick informing me I had walked past a reeling Grasshopper Warbler (a Lakes tart's tick for Nick as it happens!), that thankfully was still there when I walked back past a while later. Although regular, Gropper was by no means a certainty, unlike the Cuckoo calling from the neighbouring Barnham Cross Common taking us to 116.
