For today’s #BirdOfTheDay, Alan has chosen #warblers.
Sedge Warblers were in their abundance this summer, but it's not always easy capturing them on camera.

For Alan's #BirdOfTheDay #least theme I searched my photos and realised that my least photographed bird was the Mandarin Duck. Although I see lots at my local reserve, I only have two photos!

Here's a Skylark just about to launch himself off the top of the shrub. The next photo in the series of him actually having left the branch was blurry unfortunately 😂

Alan's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #rock with an alternative of #longbeak. I was hoping I had a picture of a Curlew on a rock but no such luck, so I have gone with the stunning Turnstone whose plumage helps them blend into the rocks.
