Some lesser whitethroats on British coasts in autumn are eastern birds from as far as Siberia. They head the wrong way. They drift west hundreds of miles off the usual course.

Urban parks can have a great diversity of bird life. The Stadtpark in Vienna reliably had #CarrionCrow, #GreatTit, and #EurasianBlueTit but also the occasional #LesserWhitethroat popping around. Fun!

The lesser whitethroat has two songs. A scratchy warble you only catch up close. Then a dry rattle that carries across whole fields. The bird stays buried deep in the hedge the whole time.

‘Lesser Whitethroat and Sloes’

acrylic, 14 x 20 cms.

For sale, please enquire.

A furtive bird in Spring, Lesser Whitethroats can be a little easier to see on Autumn migration while they may feed on berries such as sloes.

NEW PAPER: plasma-metabolomes of migrating passerine species crossing the Sahara Desert: novel insights into stopover metabolism - highlighting glucose cycling, insulin resistance, and food source-related metabolic variations.

#ornithology #birds 🪶🧪

Fig. 5 from the article: The suggested fate of protein catabolism and elevated plasma glucose during and post long-endurance flights. Free amino acids are delivered to the liver through the bloodstream. These amino acids are then used to produce glucose using gluconeogenesis. Lactic acid is maintained as a result of anaerobic conditions. The alanine cycle is maintained for the disposal of the ammonium group through the uric acid cycle. The lack of NAD+ is compensated via the malate and glycerol shuttles. High plasma glucose can also facilitate repair mechanisms for increased oxidative stress. Fig. 3 from the article: Differences in relative intensity of total TAG in the Eurasian blackcap (A) and lesser whitethroat (B) and total PUFA TAG in the Eurasian blackcap (C) and lesser whitethroat (D) among the three different stopover sites. Lesser whitethroat (left) and blackcap (right), the two species studied. Photos: WikimediaCommons; Sighmanb (lesserwhitethroat) and Charles J. Sharp (blackcap)

The male #LesserWhitethroat found yesterday by Phil J, Mike P & Keith M showed pretty well this morning at #LabradorBay, S Devon. Typically vocal, mobile and elusive 😂. A good bird here in the far west of its range. Thanks @robmurphy.bsky.social @stephmurphy.bsky.social. #DevonBirds #UKBirding

Lesser Whitethroat. This bird has a very distinctive ‘rattle’ song, listen out for it! #birds #lesserwhitethroat

Once again nature was kind to wanderer! This time, to my delight, a lesser whitethroat arrived. 🥰

Some birds don’t need bright colours to steal the show.

A lovely Lesser Whitethroat, Curruca curruca, keeping low in the scrub and brambles. They’re much shyer and more secretive than Common Whitethroats.
