Warblers of the Reed

I thought I would have a look at three of the reed warblers that occur in the UK. I thought I would try and learn the songs just incase I ever need to know them; you can never be to sure in this game! Or of course for those who travel the world its always good to know what song belongs to which reed warbler. So sit back, turn up the volume, relax, enjoy, and compare your reed warbler songs:

(For best results turn up volume quite loud so you can hear the calls clearly. NON of these recordings are mine and the copyright belongs to thoose who made the recordings, NOT me. No copyright infirdgement intended)
