I noticed on the AERG blog that they recently ringed three juvenile Cetti's Warblers. I expect they were from the nest that these adults were visiting in May. I've held these photos back as I didn't want to publicise the nest-site on the internet, even though various locals knew about it. The risk of eggers or vandals might be greatly increased by spreading the news in that way. Anyhow, I've revisited the nest site to make sure they've finished nesting, which they have, so I'm publishing these pictures now as it's already clear from the ringing reports that Cetti's has bred here this year. It's been a while since they last bred but as you can see, this pair did a great job of raising at least 3 young...
