No show (for me) Barred Warbler

On Tuesday 8th September, Robert Win found a super Barred Warbler in the north- east corner of the Denes, the area behind the Link's Road car park. Directly after work at 5.35pm, it was very nice to catch up with (written in the order I saw them) Robert Win, OFB, Rob H, Rob Will, Paul & Jane F & Andrew E (not forgetting another chap I know by his face but sadly don't know his name) but sadly the Barred remained well and truly hidden for me. Indeed it had only shown briefly 3X for Robert Win and briefly in flight for the Fergusons (Ferguson luck but not quite Ferguson views!) Although up to 4 Chiff- Chaffs were active in the area, the young Goldfinch was seen again, Dunnock, Robin and 3 Greenfinches also seen plus the female Stonechat perched on top of the bushes by Links road car park (western end).
