Marsh Warbler

Marsh Warbler
Last Saturday evening I received a text from Dave Bunney say ing he thought he had a Marsh Warbler in his garden, a few minutes later I was on site speaking to Dave, he told me it could only really be seen from inside his lounge and invited me in to view. The bird showed almost immediately and several more times in the time I was there, allowing to get some images showing some of the salient features. Alas the bird disappeared overnight.
All these images were taken through the double glazed window




Its fairly quiet around Dungeness at the moment, though there is still plenty to see. The Glossy Ibis is still showing well on the ARC. Around the reserve plenty of Bearded Tits, occasional sightings of the Bitterns, lots of Reed, Sedge and Cetti's warblers and plenty of scruffy moulting wildfowl.
On the sea a few Mediterranean Gulls and Gannets, Terns are very scarce this year. 
2 Beautiful Marbled in the trap yesterday morning
