1/9/92 Holme

RUPPELL’S WARBLER 1 female ex.

Female Ruppell's Warbler at Holme (Alan Tate http://www.aabirdpix.com/ )
Having been stuck in the queue the day before until dusk we returned disheartened to Sussex. It seemed quite a surprise that it overnighted, so we returned to Holme, and thankfully the queue was faster moving. After another anxious wait, our opportunity finally came, and the bird showed well at close range.
