Phil, has there ever been a record of Wood Warbler breeding on the reserve? I imagine there is not enough suitable habitat to sustain a breeding attempt, but would be nice if they tried.

Not that I am aware Gav - they tend not to linger in the spring so anyone who needs it for their Upton ljst should really try today. Full history of Wood Warbler on the reserve to be posted in the next 24 hours.
Glossy Ibis back at the Moors Pool on Amy's Marsh btw.
