    Warbler ID please UK

    Hi All Was out for an exercise walk today at a local pond, and spotted this little fella at a distance. Wonder could I get an expert ID please? I think it is a warbler of some kind, but unable to correctly ID. I have a few other poor shots if needed. The area is heath type land...

    Bird ID UK pond/woodland/reeds

    UK Wetland Bird: Whimbrel or Curlew or neither?

    Hi All Was at RSPB Wetlands Newport earlier today and spotted this larger wader in the distance. Could an expert ID it for me please? After consulting my Collins reference guide, I would say it's a Curlew as it has a long beak in this shot which I think is longer than the Whimbrels beak. But...

    UK garden bird - chiffchaff or warbler?
