Grasshopper Warbler Video

Here's some video of one of the Cold Edge Grasshopper Warblers. On the day I filmed this, I had to wait 7 hours for it to pop its head above the parapet......and that was my second visit. This has been the best view of Grasshopper Warbler that I've ever had as it was reeling in really good lighting conditions. Every other view I've had has always been in poor light around dusk and at long range. This guy was only about 4 - 5 metres away. Enjoy.
