Icterine Warbler, Spurn










Another Icterine Warbler last Monday at the caravan site. This was a different bird from the one the previous night and it showed itself far more. Cameras were fired over my shoulder like gunshot ! The bird remained in these few trees all day so good views were had by everyone. But was there really any need for the big camera man to camp out under the tree all day ??

We had never seen so many people at Spurn, obviously word had got out about the numbers of birds there and people arrived thick and fast throughout the day. It was a nightmare! The road in was more like a motorway. Plenty of birds still around but far too many people for our liking !
