Oldbury Power Station Sightings Including the Rare YELLOW BROWED WARBLER

Today there was a very rare bird to the east coast of England whereas they are normally sighted every autumn on the west coast. This special bird was a YELLOW- BROWED WARBLER which has been sighted all day. I was very lucky to see it at 16:10 and the only photo I took was very good to get and as he was very active flying between the trees and calling rapidly on the track towards the River Severn. After the 2 minutes of him being heard and seen the yellow- browed warbler flew off and he wasn't sighted again. Hopefully he will be there tomorrow and as today he attracted over 50 people if he is there tomorrow he attract even more.
