A male Sedge Warbler is again trying to attract a mate at Toad Holes Beck. I found one in full song on the 6/5 singing from cover at the middle pond.
Like it’s cousin the Reed Warbler which I have never recorded in our area, the Sedge also ‘Can’ have mimicry in it’s song. And whilst their is no mimicry in the clip below I heard a snippet of the Goldfinch song from the Sedge.
Sadly I fear that there is possibly too much disturbance at the small pond for the species to breed but Never say Never!!
