Nightingale


Singing Nightingales are few and far between this far north so the male at Cowpen Bewley Woodland Park is certainly a treat. Singing its heart out for its third day today, can't help but feel it's all in vain. Crosses to the north side of the beck sometimes, making it Hartlepool's 2nd ever, following an autumn bird over 25 years ago.... told you it was rare.... Well outnumbered by Sprossers!!


Added this pic of Garden Warbler this morning to my Cleveland collection. Over 50 species in there now and all but three taken with my new camera since last August. Some other nice pics there... check it out on my Facebook gallery.
