    It was very cold on that morning. That's probably why its plumage was so ruffled.

    these lovely little warblers are getting well established in our region in the last few years. Love their typical zip-zip flight call

    these "zitzits" were everywhere and they seemed to support the heat better than most other birds.

    no more luck with Sardinian warbler today, but the place was full of fan-tailed warblers, just waiting to be photographed.

    Whoo hoo! :D I just got this one ID'd by the very knowledgeable folks on ID Forum ... and it was another lifer. Not one of my best photos by a long shot, but it was retrievable from the cliff's edge of overexposure, enough to ID at any rate. And that makes six lifers that trip. Must try to...
