Melodious Warbler

News of a Melodious Warbler showing well at Langdon Cliffs on Sunday morning the 22nd August was to good to resist , i soon arrived on site and found my way around to the field below the Rader station and bumped into the original finder Rich Bonser (congrats on a great find & good to meet you).

We didn't have long to wait to see this delightful bird as it showed very well whilst it was actively feeding on fly's and small bugs, here are a selection of photos :

After watching the Melodious Warbler for quite sometime i decided to check out the bushes to see what else was around, lot's of Common Whitethroat & 2 Lesser Whitethroat were seen as was a really cracking looking Spotted Flycatcher.

It was also great to see a Jersey Tiger Moth .
