Yes I saw one in Somerset on Wednesday.
We've had them here in Cornwall for four or five days. I saw one on the
golf course yesterday, thought it was dead, in fact it was alive but
only just. It might have been chilled by the cold wind we had, so I
tucked it under a leaf with best wishes for its survival.

Also, the skylarks were very active on the course yesterday. Swooping
and diving all over the area. They must have started their breeding
activities I imagine.
