Yellow-browed Warbler, Wombwell Ings











A fabulous day out to Wombwell Ings. Brilliant reserves with friendly, chatty locals which always makes for a good laugh as the banter flows!  We have never been before and with exact location of parking and birds from Richard, we were soon stood in the mud with the crowd,  watching not only a yellow-browed warbler but a firecrest also. The firecrest wasn't still for a second, flitting between bushes on both sides of the river but it didn't help matters as both a photographer and a birder thought they could get even closer than the crowd, standing almost in the bushes ! These 28 whooper swans flew in to add to the tally. An excellent day.
