First Reed Warbler of the year

By-the-way sightings from Isola della Cona included the usual spring stuff, but some were of note: 2 Purple Herons, 2 Spoonbills, Black-winged Stilt, 1 Marsh Harrier, several Spotted Redshanks in breeding plumage, Greenshank, cca. 10 Black-tailed Godwits, tons of Ruff and Wood Sand, 1 Meadow Pipit, 1 Nightingale, 1 Sedge Warbler (heard) and the first REED WARBLER of the year. Also a Red Fox showed up in the freshwater marsh. The odd Sacred Ibis and 2 dodgy Ruddy Shelducks still present.
