Oooh VERY nice photos. Such a handsome bird

I'm hoping to catch up with my first Reed Watrbler in the coming weeks....I've been told about a few sites where they are but need to swot up on the song so I know what to listen out for!

Whoops.....just realised it's a Great Reed Warbler! Not something I'm likely to see (or identify on my own!!!) at East Chevington!

*note to self: read thread titles properly in future!!!*

Wonderful photos! I saw a Great Reed Warbler today, but not nearly as well as in your pics... it was singing really loud though! :)
