Can't beat the reeling...

The Savi's Warbler at Lodmoor showed distantly on my first visit but news that it was singing from more visible spots encouraged me to return to Weymouth before work this morning. The bird reeled almost constantly between 0730 and 0815, dropping down occasionally. The opening stanza of song - compared to a stuttering motorbike - could be heard clearly. Forced to digiscope, so not great pictures, but my first of this species at least. Bearded Tit and Cetti's Warbler were also very vocal, though less visible.
