Patch mega

Finishing work a bit early today, I went to see the juvenile Dipper on the River Leen at Bulwell - a nice confiding bird. I then headed to the patch, were it was mainly very quite (a single Green Sand was the only wader that wasn't a Lapwing), until I heard what sounded remarkably like a Willow Tit on the south side of Mons Pool... and after a bit of gentle pishing, out it popped for 10 seconds, before vanishing. It appeared to be a young bird (maybe the same one that was at Langford earlier in the summer?), and is only the second I've ever had at Collingham, after a bird in 2009.
