We
finally had a Yellow-browed Warbler at the Obs today. They are all over
the country so it was nice to finally get to grips with one. It was discovered
first thing calling
frequently from Sycamores by the Lighthouse on Pharos Street and it was seen
twice before
disappearing inland. The nearest site with enough cover was the Mount where it
was heard
once in the morning and seen briefly at lunchtime.
