Surprising news of a male Blackcap singing in Acton, London sporadically for 2 weeks now, in urban gardens. First heard on 15th Jan 2012. Recorded 29th Jan and uploaded to xeno-canto.org ref XC93726. Quick searches and checks of literature indicate few other records of males singing in UK in winter. Presumably European male; dialect may be detectable.
Weather has been fairly typical for time of year, between 5-12C.
