Melodious warbler

Most of the summer migrants are in now with just a few late species such as the shrikes to make an appearance. A melodious warbler showed up today or at least was singing from within a bush in my garden while I was busy working.
In fact it was a good day for birdsong, perhaps the hot weather was encouraging. Besides the usual suspects I heard cuckoo, oriole, hoopoe and firecrest while shovelling a few tons of calcaire.
