A little help needed from our Sue and our other resident bird watchers of the site

Picture by Stephanie Jackson

I took this picture on holiday in Roch which some of you have kindly commented on. I have searched through my bird books and I think he is a warbler but I cannot be sure. Any ideas?

BTW Sue - yes I did edit the poor lads head off in the Catch of the Day pic - LOL - forgot to ask his permission and it was a clear photo of his face! Lesson learned - bet he would have been really pleased if I had told him because he was so proud!

This is a fledgling bird, which (for me) can make it a little harder to identify, Stephanie.

With the distinctive white eye ring, I would call it is a Garden Warbler, but it also seems to have the colouring of a  Wood or Willow Warbler, though the colouring could have been a reflection of the foliage behind.

I will send this along to Andy and Roy, both of whom are good birders and see what they have to say.  

It's a super smashing picture, Stephanie, well caught. 

Thanks Michael - think the colour will help them identify him though. I have got some more - might put another one on (from the back!) to help.

Thanks Diana - it was so lovely coming across this tree full of these lovely little creatures!
