	DNR - Kirtland's Warbler (Dendroica kirtlandii)
		The endangered Kirtland's warbler is one of the rarest members of the wood warbler (Parulidae) family.
		The egg laying activity of the cowbirds began to impact the Kirtland's warbler population.
		A Kirtland's Warbler Recovery Plan was developed in 1976, and updated in 1985, to provide state and federal agency personnel with a structured guide to direct management efforts toward increasing the Kirtland's warbler population.

		This is a medium-sized warbler, 12-13cm in length, and similar to its eastern counterpart, Icterine Warbler.
		The sexes are identical, as with most warblers, but young birds are paler on the belly.

	Icterine Warbler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Icterine Warbler (Hippolais icterina) is an Old World warbler in the tree warbler genus Hippolais.
		It breeds in mainland Europe except the southwest, where it is replaced by its western counterpart, Melodious Warbler.
		This is a medium-sized warbler, 12–13.5cm in length, similar to Melodious Warbler.

	Identificacion
		In fact we could say that both species (Melodious and Olivaceous) are fairly different to the exception of some Melodious Warblers, mainly young birds, duller than usual.
		The Melodious Warbler (hippolais polyglotta) is the most widespread hippolais warbler in Spain, showing grayish-green upperparts and wings, and lack of the typical pale wing panel of Icterine Warbler (hippolais icterina).
		To be a "subsaharian" migrat the first birds don't reach the Iberian Peninsula till the second fortnight of May, returning to their wintering areas throughout August and September.

		At 3.00pm he came across a grey and white warbler trapped in one of the nets, which, on extraction and cursory examination, he was able to provisionally identify as an Olivaceous Warbler.
		Blyth's Reed Warbler is also superficially similar, but it too lacks conspicuous white on the outer tail feathers, as well as having a shorter first primary.
		The Portland Eastern Olivaceous Warbler features on 'The Natural History of The Isle of Portland' video which is available from the Observatory.

		Richard and Andy, meanwhile, had seen a Melodious Warbler on St Martin's, much to Mark's displeasure as he, rather bizarrely, had never seen one before.

	Hippolais pallida
		Olivaceous warbler is a plain, rather non-descript bird whose most striking feature is its long-looking head and bill.
		The long, sloping forehead and relatively plain face indicate that this is one of the Hippolais warblers but it is smaller and slimmer than Olive-tree or Upcher’s Warblers and lacks the yellow tones of Icterine or Melodious.
		If, in the strong Mediterranean light, you’re not sure how much yellow is in the plumage then you should note that it clearly lacks the rounded head of a Melodious Warbler and the primary projection, pale bill and pale wing panels are nowhere near as striking as on an Icterine Warbler.

	CROSS CHANNEL BIRDING
		One or two pairs of Fan-tailed Warbler have bred near Marck (just east of Calais) since 1997 - take the lane to the ‘equestrian centre’ towards the sea off the D119 (just east of the Calais bypass), drive all the way to where there’s a metal gate across what is by then a gravel track.
		The open areas of mixed scrub with plenty of broom within the wood are favoured by Melodious Warbler, but note that Icterine Warbler are sometimes seen.

	Portland Bird Observatory - latest news August 2006
		The Woodchat Shrike remained in Top Fields and a Melodious Warbler retrapped in the Obs garden was found to be the individual ringed nine days ago and only seen on one date since then.
		A ringed Melodious Warbler - presumably the bird last seen early last week - popped up for a couple of hours early in the morning beside the Obs garden before promptly disappearing for the rest of the day.
		Yesterday's Melodious Warbler was retrapped in the Obs garden during the afternoon but more attention was paid to the Kentish Plover - a welcome year-tick after a blank spring for the species - that had shown up at Ferrybridge in the morning.

		The highlight was the Melodious Warbler, still present in the rigs around Setter.
		Elsewhere, commoner passerines were reduced again, with 40 Willow Warbler and 15 Garden Warbler, 4 Whitethroat, 3 Whinchat, 3 Pied Flycatcher, 2 Reed Warbler, 2 Wood Warbler and single Tree Pipit, Grasshopper Warbler and Redstart.
		There were a few other warblers, with singles of Sedge and Reed and autumnal high counts of Garden (4) and Willow Warbler (21).

	Hippolais icterina
		To separate it from the closely related Melodious Warbler though, you have to look carefully at its wings: Icterines have a pale panel in the wing and their primaries are unusually long and spaced out, not bunched up, as in a Melodious.
		Also, the legs are usually a distinct blue-grey as opposed to brown-grey and they are less striking than Melodious Warbler's.
		Unlike the Melodious Warbler, the majority of records come from the east coast.

	Dennis Garrett's Report (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		I chose this location because it gave the opportunity to explore at altitude in these superb mountains and visit a wetland (the Ebro Delta) where there is something of interest at any time of the year.
		By the end of the first week of our stay other birds that were very active upon our arrival had also suddenly gone quiet, for example, melodious warbler and red necked nightjar.
		Hoopoes, nightingales, melodious warblers and cirl buntings breed by the house.

	birdnames
		Nevertheless, I feel their inclusion is warranted, since the names that birders use can say something about the bird, birding as a hobby, and birders themselves.
		I have omitted examples that reduce a bird's name to its adjectival component (eg; 'white-rumped' for White-rumped Sandpiper, 'melodious' for Melodious Warbler, etc).
		Using such terms puts a (rather shallow) erudite gloss on what is basically a nerdy pastime, and implies a depth of knowledge and learning which, though largely illusory in most cases, nevertheless marks out the serious birder.

	Site guide: Rathmoylan birds
		Extensive low scrub along the stream running down to Rathmoylan cove, and on the adjacent hillside, provides excellent migrant habitat, although the site is under-watched.
		Nocturnal migrants are frequent in spring and autumn, usually Goldcrests, Willow Warblers and Chiffchaffs but occasionally rarer species like Melodious Warbler or Firecrest.
		Down at the cove, wagtails and Rock Pipits are frequent and Black Redstarts have been recorded in autumn.

		With a thin cloud cover and the wind having dropped to the lightest of south-westerly breezes it was again most surprising that migrants remained stubbornly thin on the ground.
		Wheatear and Willow Warbler were the only species that managed double figure counts at the Bill, where the pick of the other sightings were 4 Grey Herons, 4 Sedge Warblers, 3 Tree Pipits, a Grasshopper Warbler, a Lesser Whitethroat, a Pied Flycatcher and a Spotted Flycatcher.
		One of yesterday's Melodious Warblers was reported to have been seen briefly on several occasions on the east side of the Obs garden during the morning.

		Passage of Subalpine Warbler dwindles off in early month and the late birds are usually females.The movements of Spectacled Warbler are not well understood,there is still a significant Northerly movement in early May but on the other hand I have personally trapped and ringed a juvenile bird the same month!
		I always enjoy observing or examining in the hand the Orphean Warbler, the male particularly is a real "stonker " with its fl head and striking white/pale yellow eye ring.
		Willow Warblers are more conspicuous in the spring than in autumn and migration continues well into May.When it comes to Bonellis Warbler, autumn counts are minimal,but in the spring however are pretty common.Considering that they breed on the Iberian peninsular there arrival in April and May is late.

		The former has again reverted to its rather scarce and strictly south and west oriented occurrence pattern in the UK in the last few years so it is maybe not surprising that that one didn’t make it.
		Of the remainder Bonelli’s Warbler of course now becomes two with Eastern and Western being split but both remain really rare birds in the UK.
		Collared Flycatcher I would still place in the top 20 or so but again it is a very rare British bird although bursts of spring birds in the 1990’s could still bode well.
