I had previously seen this phyllosc species in October 2017 at St Aldhelm&#8217;s Head area in Dorset, so wasn&#8217;t really too bothered to drive across to Spurn.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I soon changed my mind when I saw the views that this bird was giving and so decided to go for it on 20th October. I arrived on site in pouring rain but as the rain eased I soon had excellent views of this little leaf warbler. After taking a series of photographs, I decided to head for the nearby cafe to dry off and have a bacon butte and a cuppa.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Later the sun came out and so I decide to try for the warbler again. The bird appeared to have moved location as there was nobody about at the earlier site. I decide to walk to the Canal hide, to try my luck for a Jack Snipe and as I made my way towards the track to the hide, I noticed a small bird flitting in the hedge. Good grief, it was the Two-barred Greenish Warbler right in front of me. I watched it all on my own for several minutes before it flicked over the hedge and disappeared. Later it had returned to the original location.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On my way home I stopped off at Kilnsea Wetlands Reserve and had a fly-over Lapland Bunting, a fitting end to my day at Spurn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\"
