Common Whitethroat

(sylvia communis)
The Common Whitethroat is a summer visitor to Scotland wintering in west Africa. It is mostly associated with scrubby thickets such as bramble (black berry) patches and it can be a bit of a skulker. It does however perform an aerial display in full song to attract a mate and to defend its patch. It song is a scratchy jumble of notes in a jerky rhythm. It is one of our commonest summer migrants.
