Hi folks,
I was saying on a recent thread that I was now looking out for Garden and Wood Warblers. Well I've got the Garden (today) but no sign of Wood, which is getting a bit uncommon these days anyway. But to partially make up I've also seen/heard Lesser Whitethroats (3 of them) yesterday and today, and Sedge over last weekend.
So still to come reasonably are Wood (unlikely really), Reed (certain), and Grasshopper (possible). Before you start on Cetti's etc let me remind you that we are talking about within 5 Miles of home and we dont have the habitats for much else.
Didn't manage to photograph either the Garden nor the Lesser Whitethroat so I'm going to cheat and post a Reed from last year. I pished this one and he came out to look at me.
Anyway, hope springs........
Bill.
