Yellow-browed Warbler - Haverfordwest

Lisa and I heard a Yellow-browed Warbler (3 times) whilst running around Haverfordwest Racecourse this afternoon.  It was on the outer side of the upper racecourse, about halfway along from the car park heading westwards, in the area around the largest sycamore.  A few Goldcrest and lots of Blackbird and Redwing in the area.  (Our friend Kevin is running the 5k Haverfordwest Parkrun course at the racecourse every 5 hours this week, culminating in the 25th at the Parkrun itself on Saturday morning, so if you see him, give him some encouragement!  He is raising funds for the excellent free-to-use public space, you can sponsor him here.)

Earlier, the Cattle Egret was roosting at the end of the island opposite Crabhall at the Gann (thanks to Andy Sims for the heads up).
