Two warblers from Israël (1 Viewer)

Hello,

I have some trouble identifying two warblers I saw in Israël around the end of may, beginning of june. The first picture is of a bird I saw in Jaffa, it seems like a young bird and I have absolutely no idea. The second one was photographed at Ein Avdat Canyon and on the spot I identified it as Eastern Olivaceous Warbler (Iduna pallida), however I am not sure at all that this is correct... I hope someone on here can help me with the identification.

Thanks, Niels

I'm thinking Eastern Olivaceous for image 2....and a Scrub Warbler/ Graceful Prinia for Image 1?

Cheers
 
Thanks for your replies!
I guess I should have suspected the prinia because of the long tail, but I am glad I got the other one right!

Cheers, Niels
