Wood Warbler 🎶 🎶
Wonderful morning had with this bird.
Canon r7 / 100-500mm / 1.4x 📷
At times struggled to ‘lock on’ in the dappled light, so manual focus used also .. impressed.
Overall pleasantly pleased 😎

They’ve nested inside the front door porch canopy in recent years. They’ll only need to move a metre 🤞

Possible Caspian Gull, though not typical primary pattern. Lone bird on lower lake at Carbuton. Very wary, but keeps returning if flushed (push bikes or me getting out of car) Notts Birdwatchers BirdGuides RareBirdAlertUK
