A whitethroat this morning. It's been an excellent year for them in the local valley. Hopefully get to post some different warblers over the coming weeks. Lots of blackcaps and chiffchaffs around too.

Re: Warblers
Interesting that they are doing so well, this year especially. TBH I was tracking two foxes hunting in hedgerows today but they spotted me... no surprise there. Once they legged it I turned and the hedgerow was alive with whitethroats.Linda257 wrote: Thu Jul 03, 2025 10:54 am Its been same up here for them aswell, av never seen so many!
Re: Warblers
Cheers SnappyMac. Surprised there wasn't a topic already for them and warblers in general. They do make the hedges come alive.SnappyMac wrote: Thu Jul 03, 2025 10:35 amLovely close up BobBob S wrote: Thu Jul 03, 2025 9:10 am A whitethroat this morning.

Re: Warblers
It has been very cheering to read of various species having a good year as there have been a few stinkers recently.
