willow warbler

The D300 should come back from the repair shop today, but the weather dont look like I will be able to get out in the field to see how it goes.

I can already feel it in the air so I'm ready for all the spring action to begin in earnest.

Taken last year ago but the pale legs make it a perfect match for the Willow Warbler, the rest of the body makes it very similar to the Chiffchaff.

Hi Peeps, Well I had intended on a trip to Rye Harbour today, but unfortunately my back is not up to it. I have to save meself, as we have visitors coming from Gods Country tomorrow for the Seafood Festival at the weekend. As its a bonnie morning here, maybe I will be able to...

The Willow Warblers are looking very nice as they work their way out of the UK........Hope to see them again in the Spring

Took this shot yesterday, not sure if its a chiffy or willow, someone will put me right! Thanks my friends for the ID.

i don't know why i did not share any shot for any Willow warbler, i go some nice shots for those who came in April and May, and i specially liked this one as it shows how the Tamarisk-tree were beautiful at that time of the year. hope you like it.

I think I found a Warbler pre-school this morning, as there was loads of juves in one bush; although it was a big bush|=)| There was Common Whitethroats, Sedge Warblers, Reed Warblers, Chiffchaffs, and Willow Warblers. Also another Warbler that I didn't recognise, but I never got a pic, so I'll...
