lesser whitethroat or just whitethroat or something else ipswich uk (1 Viewer)

It's a Common Whitethroat. One of the features is the rufous colour on the closed wing which the Lesser lacks.
 
Lessers practically always sing from cover too. When I was near them as breeders they were quite secretive during the breeding season, only really coming out in the Autumn.

Cheers
