Marmora's Warbler in Gwent
5 June - Scotland yesterday, Wales today....an early morning visit to the moors above Blaenavon and excellent views of the singing Marmora's Warbler - only the fifth UK record and the bird apparently holding territory. A UK tick for me. Seen well perched and in song-flight - smoky-grey plumage with red eye-ring and red legs. Photos, copyright Chris Thomas. Two male Whinchats also present, along with Tree Pipits and male and female Cuckoos.
