Ok.... early start this morning to erect some fencing by the Marsh Warbler.  Hopefully this will deter any further incursions and quite simply the Police will be informed if anyone does so.... enough said.

Again everyone impeccably well behaved today and the bird even showed well on a couple of occasions. Was singing very well again and has added some more to the repertoire since the weekend....

The list now stands at:

  1. Yellow Wagtail tsiip call
  2. Skylark ... part of song
  3. Sedge Warbler
  4. Swallow twittering
  5. House Sparrow call
  6. Song Thrush
  7. Crested Tit ... this one is particularly good with lots of impressive churrings!
  8. Blackbird ... both the song and a full blown 'ooo.. I have just found a cat!' alarm call
  9. Greenfinch
  10. Whitethroat contact churr
  11. Quail 'whip wee whipp'
  12. Starling
  13. Stonechat or even Redstart 'whit, chack' call
  14. House Martin
  15. Linnet call
  16. Wren ticking
  17. Little Tern
  18. Chaffinch - 'pink'
  19. Pied Wagtail - chiswick
  20. Woodlark - song flight
  21. Garden Warbler
  22. Blackcap
  23. Blue Tit alarm
  24. Great Tit 'teacher'
  25. Reed Warbler 'gurking'
  26. Nightingale whistles
  27. Crested Lark

Any additions please let me know!  Can we reach 30!

  • Nice and easy... park at the visitors centre and walk west along teh river wall. when you reach the end by the landfill site turn right and follow the tarmac cycle path for a couple of hundred yards until it climbs and affords you aview over Wennington Marsh.  the orange fence will be in front of you. View from behind it looking down the slope into the nettles and hemlock.  Good luck!
