    Hume's Leaf Warbler Hi All Better weather again today, like Tuesday, so I went back to see the HLW again this afternoon. A repeat performance, as the bird had not been seen since a sighting earlier today I understand, so once again a no-show for me until mid-afternoon ... and then it...

    Hume's Leaf Warbler Hi All As the Hams Hall bird is my first Hume's Leaf Warbler, in spite of getting six mainly fleeting views a fortnight ago on my first trip, I went back this afternoon for a fourth time having dipped on my last two visits. Two hours later, and surprisingly the only birder...

    Rare and Scarce Birds in Warwickshire

    Hi All Brian's comments in his last sentence applied perfectly today when, between mid-day and mid-afternoon, the HLW showed at least half a dozen times. Views were often very brief, and some in flight as it flew backwards and forwards across the very muddy top path near the pylon. But at least...

    This particular bird was showing well at times this morning, but in the time I was there when four other birders were also present, no second bird came into view to confirm a pair still there today. Cheers Andy R.

    Rare and Scarce Birds in Warwickshire

    Bittern at Ladywalk Hi All Went to see the Ladywalk Bittern yesterday. Because it is a common and not scarce sighting there, I ended up posting a note on the Birds of Warwickshire thread, when in hindsight, maybe it should still have been on here. So to balance that out, and give the likes of...

    Rare and Scarce Birds in Warwickshire

    Hi All Just wanted to echo Dean's words by saying we both agreed it was a memorable moment to see such a joyous group of birders, finally at 9pm, get great views of a terrific bird flying quite low almost over our heads... and then the group almost breaking out out into song ! So ... a little...
