West high down - Needles headland

Willow warblers predominated - 18
Redstart - 4
Blackcap - 8
Whitethroat - 3

The highlight tho: 1 grasshopper warbler reeling in a nearby garden.



male and female redstart respectively



Many WWs - a couple of my fave shots


Gropper - requires volume as other birds are vocal plus a badly timed lawnmower?
