Yellow-browed Warbler @ Newtown

Yellow-browed Warbler still present in the Sycamore trees surround the council car park behind Mc Donald's. It's very mobile and can disappear for long periods of time. It usually spends most of it's time high in the tree tops, but occasionally comes low when chasing a Chiffchaff!!
