Willow Warbler - Recent Sighting

Some images of a Willow Warbler that I took when I was in an almost fruitless search for butterflies the other day.

I heard the contact call of the parents and observed several immature in and around a hawthorn bush. Even though the immature are quite large now, it will still be a busy time for the parents feeding hungry mouths.
