Yellow-browed Warbler
With Yellow-browed Warblers becoming an increasingly common visitor across the UK and a lot of reports over the past few weeks, another one being in MK a couple of weeks ago, I was hopeful that this year would deliver my first one and after many fruitless walks listening out for them recently, I bumped into this one by the local brook this morning.
It gave itself away with several calls, fortunately most of which I managed to catch on video before it continued to forage silently among the willows for the next 20 minutes or so after, briefly showing itself among some of the less densely covered branches in the second part of the video. It may not have been the best view but I'm still over the moon to have finally found one, especially so close to home.
