WILLOW WARBLER

Early start down to Marazion this morning to see if the Savi's Warbler was still around, but unfortunately it had not been heard since yesterday morning so guess its moved on. Still it was a bracing experience with a very cold Easterly  wind to make sure I did not overheat. So left about 09.30am and headed home and decided to walk across Buller Downs to stretch the legs. A few migrants were in evidence, mainly Chiffchaffs, Whitethroats, Linnets all laying claim to territory. I also spent 5 minutes with a lovely Willow Warbler and managed to get a good few pics of which I am using three for tonights post.
