Description
The male garden warbler reaches its breeding territory at the beginning of May and will make several nests in the bushes. Only one of these is later chosen to be the actual nest, which is finished off in the mornings when the grass is still damp and easy to mould after the night's dew. The nests are often found in raspberry bushes, but the species also like juniper bushes. As the name suggests, the garden warbler has a beautiful song that usually reminds one of running water.
