Out and about today and I managed to get a few pictures of a bird.
I thought it'd be easy enough to ID, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
Habitat wise, it was coastal (not on the actual sea front) - an area of reeds, lakes, open heath with a few scattered shrubs and low trees (it was sitting in an Elder when I saw it, then moved on to a bramble bush).
I wondered if it might be a water pipit. Or maybe some kind of warbler (a pale icterine warbler would be a nice sighting!). But neither of these seem quite right.
The key markings seem to be the streaks on the throat, and also streaking on top of the head.
Here are the pictures I managed to get of it - would gratefully appreciate it if anyone can ID it for me...









Cheers all.
