Melodious





Arriving at Martin's Haven shortly before 2 p.m. I found the sun right against me and thought I would struggle to get any decent photos of the Melodious Warbler. During an hour or so the bird put in a couple of appearances fairly close and gave good views - but against the light. Then after a further 30 mins it re-appeared, came close and then crossed over to the gorse to the left in decent light. It hopped around in that area for 5 mins or so giving excellent views. More pics here (rather repetetive but hopefully shows all features). Nice bird! Well done on finding it Owen.
