Marsh Warbler - Cley

Just a few weeks after adding the Woodchat Shrike to my UK life list, I managed to add another lifer last weekend, in the form of a Marsh Warbler. This super little bird that was constantly singing it's heart out was in the reeds at Cley. Just a couple of hundred yards from the East Bank, it was hard to miss it's song, that was a repertoire of mimicry of other birds. I counted at least a dozen different bird songs and calls, from Blue Tit, Sparrow, Swallow, Swift, Bearded Tit, Linnet, Goldfinch, Blackbird, Chiffchaff, Reed, Sedge and Cetti's Warbler and even the Oystercatcher. It was fantastic to stand just metres away and watch and listen. A super little show off of a bird. The short phone video is a must to listen to at the bottom of this post to appreciate it's mimicry.😀
