Now back on the mainland, a thorough trawl, on a full-size screen, through all my efforts to capture photographs of the
Green Warbler (most of which show lovely clusters of sycamore or oak leaves, but nothing else!) has revealed an additional image of the bird in stronger light. This emphasizes not only just how bright and Wood Warbler-like it was, but also appears to show that the supercilia do not quite meet over the bill, unlike
some other photos and
some field views, revealing just how tricky a feature this can be to pin down.

Great Northern Diver in the Landing Bay (see post for 27 Sep to 3 Oct).
