Chiffchaff

All this week there has been a chiffchaff singing at Filnore Woods.  A few chiffchaffs over-winter in Britain but mostly they are summer visitors, so when you hear the distinctive 'chiff chaff chiff chuff chiff chiff chaff' song, it sounds as though spring is really here.

Filnore Woods provide ideal conditions for chiffchaffs: low scrub for nesting and tall trees to perch and sing from.

Come and hear chiffchaffs and lots of other birds singing their early morning songs on our Dawn Chorus Walk on 29th April.  We start at 5.00 am by the field gate on the far side of Thornbury leisure centre car park.
