Marshide – Sedge

On a passing visit, from the road.

While this article is primarily about the Sedge Warbler, these Godwits seem to capture the nature of the environment.

Singing from a high point — this is MY patch.

Defending territory from all-comers.

It was his singing that gave the game away and allowed me to focus on this individual.

While it may appear these are all consecutive images, the sedge was up and away, here and there defending his patch, but returning to a favourite site to sing — a waiting game until he returned.

Unfortunately a leaf was casting a shadow over his head and face.

A constant song – no complaints.
