       Yes, I will be Tracy, but not sure where to go..
       UPDATE.. The Barred Warbler is still frequenting my garden.. I
       took a few photos of it, about 5 mins. ago, then it flew to my
       Sycamore tree..

       You are so lucky to see so many warblers and know what they are
       too!  I like the barred warbler the best.  Lovely to see one -
       never have seen one down here. :o

       Well to be honest Benji.. I got the ID from Hugh Harrop, the
       wildlife photographer, also Mark, the county recorder helps me
       also, the Barred warbler really pleased me, as I've never seen
       one before.. It has been around the village for the last week,
       the last time I saw it was yesterday morning.. only spotted a
       male and female Blackcap at Sandgarth today..
       I think your own gardens are the best place to watch out for
       migrants..
       I'll be watching tomorrow, as its going to be a day of rain..
