Yeovil Riverside - Thu 15 Jun

I finally had the opportunity to try and see the Marsh Warbler, that Oli Mockridge found at Yeovil Riverside on Tuesday lunchtime, this evening after work. Basically, I had an hour, so parked up at the sewage works, made the 15 minute walk out to where the bird was and then spent half an hour waiting and watching. I did manage to hear it singing a few times and got a view of it in flight, but nothing like some of the views others have had. Nevertheless, this was only my third Marsh Warbler and my second for Somerset following the Sutton Bingham bird that was present for a single day back in 2020. So basically a twitch tonight before heading off for a meeting!
