Grasshopper
Warbler is a species I grew up with at Stag Rocks, Bamburgh,
Northumberland. They sang from the dunes all the way from Bamburgh
Castle to Budle Bay.
In Hordaland, Norway, they are rather scarcer but are found regularly in suitable habitat. In Øygarden they are scarcer still - the pictures below may represent the first documented record - a male singing on the island of Hernar. This bird stayed at least several days.
