Pictured above a month earlier when he liked to sing from the balcony outside my workroom.

Subsong from under a bush in my garden 27th February 2005

Bird within inches of the mics - you can only just hear this kind of subsong within a few metres normally.

A little later - notice at the end he's doing bits of normal song, but very quietly.

Some catchy phrases

Felton blues - this was an amazing bird from 1996.

Some more phrases from the same bird.

New Forest 1993 - a phrase that was very popular and did the rounds a few years ago, but I don't think I hear it so much now.
