Overwintering PALLAS'S LEAF WARBLER




Oxfordshire birder ROGER WYATT is a truly exceptional photographer and I have repeatedly looked in awe at his rarity efforts. He has further excelled himself with his latest offerings, capturing the River Blackwater PALLAS'S LEAF WARBLER as it fed low down by the overhanging riverine vegetation.

The bird has been wintering on the site that straddles both the Berkshire and Hampshire borders since early January and is still to be found there now.
