Out for a walk today and fortunately I had my camera with me.
Saw this little bird hopping about...

I'm not entirely sure what it is, but I'm about 75% certain it's a chiffchaff.
Anyone know for sure?
It was the right size, made the right sound (a 'huEET' voice), right habitat, and you can see the pale stripe above its eye and, if you look hard enough, you can see part of the white ring around its eye, especially at the bottom.
Now I think about it I've talked myself into it a bit more. I'm now about 90% sure it's a chiffchaff.
But if anyone can categorically confirm it, or know better, I'd be really grateful.
