At the time, I put this down as a Melodious Warbler, as it seemed to match the pictures and description in Collins, but as it's a lifer for me, I took a couple of photos. As always, the quality is very poor, but now I look at them, I am wondering if I got this right. The back view seems very dark....
The bird was quite large, not far off sparrow size, so distinctly bigger than a phylloscopus warbler. Brief notes taken at the time: "dark greeny brown above, pale yellow below, paler supercillium, dark legs, squeaky fast chekchekchekchek call"
Is it possible to make any positive identification from these photos?
The bird was at El Clot de Galvaney just south of Alicante in Spain.
