Nice to see Spotted Flycatchers with young, Matthew.

Their numbers have declined dramatically in UK.

indeed Geoff, I have noticed that as well!! We usually have 1 or 2 pairs breeding in our school, but so far I have seen none!! Sad really, as they are one of my favorite summer visitors in the UK, always delightful to watch.
