Oriental Reed Warbler

Oriental Reed Warblers used to be common on the river near my apartment, about 7 or 8 singing males or so, but they completely disappeared a couple of years ago.

3 have been singing this spring. At separate locations and not often. Is it just 1 bird moving around? Are they just migrants passing through?

Oriental Reed Warbler

Oriental Reed Warblers are common summer visitors. There used to be 9 or 10 singing males on the river near my aprtment but I’ve only heard 2 this year (and they seem to have disappeared): more victims of the City tree felling policy I assume.

This bird was on the west coast today.
