Finally......

A smart yellow-browed warbler in Ventnor Park at 3.15! In an immobile tit flock (chiffchaff flock) by the band stand. In full sun which was rather nice. This tit flock has a rather restricted circuit so my guess is the YBW would be easy to re-find (was still present when I left). My second YBW in this bit of Ventnor Park since 2013, making this the joint most reliable part of Ventnor for YBW, alongside the Ventnor Industrial Estate area!

Also one goldcrest and 30+ chiffchaffs (i.e. the 'tit' flock) and two blackcaps, a jay, and five skittish continental blackbirds.

At nearby Flowersbrook, 5 chiffchaffs, a grey wagtail, two robins and a chaffinch drinking and bathing at the cascade.
