Grasshopper Warbler reels at the Bagot





I usually only go to Morton Bagot a few times a year and yet I've been twice this week. Richard Harbird kindly let me know that a Grasshopper Warbler was reeling from the reed bed at Netherstead. This fantastic bird took to reeling on the fence posts rather then reel secretley hidden in the reeds like the species usually do.

We returned the following evening to hear the bird again. This time he reeled away from inside the reed bed and showed very briefly but never coming out in the open.
