    Warbler ID?

    Thanks Mike. Sorry only pics I got........, can try again on saturday...., it was around me and Neil all morning but only popped up for a second and was gone. The sound was rather harsh, but to say now whether or not it was a "tak" or a "tzik" sitting here in front of my computer....., hmmmm...
