This Whinchat was present this morning at Maxey GP, Etton Road. It was present on the new fencing at the southern end of the site and was doing what Whinchats do, dropping down to grab some unsuspecting insect and then returning to the fence post to `spy` out its next victim.

This is the first known Whinchat at this site this year and only the second in the recording area of the Peterborough Bird Club. Unfortunately it was not present this evening, although it could have been hiding!
