Branscombe Beauties

I've been to Branscombe twice this week. First on Monday, when I took these Firecrest pics. On Wednesday, I got some shots of the Yellow-browed but not as good as I wanted. The improved weather kept it up high, so I should've moved in for the 'kill' on dingy Monday. I saw it well enough along the fence on Monday, but it's another case of "I'll get it next time" stupidity on my part. I ought to learn from experience but don't seem to.Still, there are lots of Yellow-broweds turning up these days which is great. Are we actually witnessing a return migration, or are all of these Spring YBWs just overwintering birds which are still around? Any comments on this most welcome...
