Chiffchaff or Willow Warbler.......singing both songs !

 

A walk around Waters' Edge on Sunday gave us quite a few Blackcaps, swallow, bittern and this warbler. Chiffchaff or willow warbler? It was singing both songs. Started off with chiffchaff and then moved into a willow warbler song. Very smart bird that sang infront of us for about an hour before the dog walkers totally disturbed it !

Plenty of flies, you can see them on this photo. Singing it's little heart out !
