It might be worth mentioning that all warblers apart from Dartford and Cetti's are migrants (summer) and winter migrants also includes Whooper and Bewick's (Tundra) Swans plus alot of waterfowl, including: Teal, Wigeon, Pintail, Goldeneye, Mallard etc.
Migration is very complex and is far more complicated than just writing a list. Example Robins and Mallard are resident but are joined by many birds from mainland Europe in the winter.
Blackcap are summer visitors but some mainland European birds winter here.
