Australian Reed Warbler

Always a delight to hear ‘querty-querty-querty’ coming from the reed beds in spring.

The wetland that is part of The Fairways development just south of the Drouin golf course, was a hot spot for the Australian Reed Warbler this last spring.

Great little bird that nearly always gives away its presence with its loud calling during breeding season, mostly from out of sight in the reeds. 

Every now and then, one will pop up to the top of the reeds to loudly declare its territory.
