🦉 Blyth's reed warbler (Acrocephalus dumetorum)
📚 Acrocephalus Greek: acros upper, pointed, kephale head
📚 dumetorum lat .: dumetum thicket, thickets, dumus thorny bush
These birds arrive somewhere in the beginning or middle of May, I can’t say for sure. In some years, I met them at the beginning of May, but last year, I first met them at the end of May, which is very strange. It probably has something to do with the weather.
During the mating season, males sing songs very actively. At these moments, he even lets him get closer, thanks to which you can admire and photograph him.
The song consists of various trills, whistles and calls ever heard from other birds. And between these sounds, a crackling sound characteristic of these birds is inserted.
