Résumé :	The past five decades have seen marked changes in the number and distribution of breeding Marsh Warblers Acrocephalus palustris in Britain. The species' former stronghold was in Worcestershire, but declines during the 1980s and 1990s led to it becoming locally extinct in the area. Since then, it has continued to breed in small numbers elsewhere in Britain, particularly in coastal areas in the east. Here, we examine the changes that took place from the I 970s to the present day and offer some possible explanations for them. We also discuss contemporary British records of breeding Marsh Warblers.
