Common Whitethroat (f)
Common Whitethroat / sylvia communis. Cossall, Nottinghamshire. 24/04/21.
A newly arrived female Common Whitethroat that I photographed back in the Spring. It was highly active, vocal and posed a lot in the open. The downside was that it chose an ugly, flailed hedgerow to hang out in!
Something had caught her attention in the grass verge below, when I made this image. She became quite agitated and uttered a series of low alarm calls. I never did see what had upset her so much though!
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
