Post Lockdown Asian Desert Warbler, Northumberland

As lockdown was coming to an end in June, an Asian Desert Warbler was found on Lindisfarne in Northumberland, and it was great to get out again and travel for this special bird. I arrived on the Thursday evening, too late as a search for an hour at dusk suggested it might have departed.  After an interesting night on Lindisfarne causeway in the car (hoping the tide wouldn't get too high!) a few hours later at dawn it was located by its song and continued to move amongst the small trees in the dunes for a couple of hours.  It was around all morning and then was gone by the evening, not seen the next day.




Thanks for looking.
