Grasshopper Warbler


We heard rather than saw our first "gropper" of the year this morning just off Lon Cae Glas on way down to the coast path. The distinctive trilling call was the only clue we had as the bird itself remained invisible in the thick gorse. The photo shows the patch of Gorse the bird was in. The link below is to the RSPS website which has the call of this elusive warbler.
