Steve how are you sexing your Cetti's Warblers?

Stephen Routledge · **Posted:** Mon Nov 15, 2010 7:50 pm

Just guessing by call,females give a stuttering 'plit' call?.

Cheers Steve - don't know if I can manage that but I'll listen more carefully to my local Cetti's and see if I can distinguish/differentiate anything.
