Stonkorarious Warbler Confirmed

Just a relatively short walk and a roasting this am due to lack of ambition and avian paucity ๐Ÿคจ. A Wagtail sp. heard briefly. Several Hooded Crow 1 Cormorant. The horde of Micky taking Coots & Little Grebes. A trio of Bulbul 1 Jay.

Ironically once again in the reeds nearest the hotel a bird chose to show itself very well for a couple of minutes.
No doubt this time, twas a Savi’s Warbler ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ‘.

2 Cettis Warbler were singing. I am sure there could be a E  W ssp. split here. W birds have a louder and deeper pitch to their song. These two were lighter pitched and a sweeter tone. I remember noticing this many years ago.
