You lucky thing! It’s a Lesser Whitethroat, but not one of the regular ones that you would see in summer in your location but one of the subspecies from the East I think, make sure you look after it!

To echo Richard’s comments of an Eastern persuasion and with such a strong bill!…feed it well, be interesting to monitor it’s length of stay👍

Cheers

As I understand it collecting some poo may help ID this little one.

Excellent record Rudegar, which is well worth logging. What side of the Loughor are you? I'll Private Message you if it's easier; thanks, Barry

Thanks for the help, it's been coming back regularly for the last 4 days now days now. It's in the Mumbles area of Swansea.
