Info received via e mail - I walked down to Abereiddy yesterday and sat on the
footpath to the back of the houses and I faced the reed bed ,I was sat
there for 30 mins watching whitethroats and sedge warbler families when
it got a bit hectic as a lesser Whitethroat appeared in front of me
and then a calling grasshopper warbler at the top of a separate
Hawthorne bush then a cetti s warbler darted into the same bush and
creeped out on to the top before flying off.
I also got Reed warbler
,williow warbler ,chiffchaff,Reed bunting and garden warbler in that
area. I then noticed a bigger warbler further back in the reeds which was
perched but it had its back to me it then turned around and started
doing a very deap reeling call and had a very clear white throat I’m
presuming it could be a Savis warbler but wasn’t sure. I’ve seen them
before in Suffolk once but didn’t have great views of them the the call
sounded the same but thought I’d just check and let you know in case
there’s any birders local that could check it out.
