London birders are more than a little excited by a Dusky Warbler in Walthamstow, and rightly so. However, when they were all charging over to Eastenders land, I dutifully went for another foray into the patch and I found this! Ok, it's a feeder and there are manifestly no birds on it.

Dusky Warbler is polytypic species, including subspecies fuscatus, waigoldi, and robustus. Only ssp. fuscatus is recorded in Japan (Committee for Check-list of Japanese Birds 2000). The records of Dusky Warbler in Japan was described by Seebohm(1877), Blakiston and Pryer(1882), Dresser(1902), and Hartert(1909) (Shigeta 1996).

The Dusky Warbler has a large range, estimated globally at 1,000,000 to 10,000,000 square kilometers.
