| Dartford Warbler, Dunwich Heath, Suffolk |
The Dartford Warbler has become re-established on Dunwich Heath within the last decade or
so, and there is now a healthy breeding population of around twenty pairs. The bird has also
expanded onto suitable habitat up and down the Suffolk coast. The males become active and
mark out their territories in early spring, making this probably the best time to get good views of
this handsome scrub warbler.
