China - Tai Yuan - Warblers (1 Viewer)

Well-known member
Apologies for the quality of these pics, these are all heavy crops of small birds at 30-35m - hope you can help !

Taken up on the mountain by the Xuan Zhong monastery near Jiao Cheng, 1 hour from Tai Yuan.

The bird in #1 was acting like a Pallas' flying out to pick insects off the exterior of leaves, but didn't seem to have the hovering ability of a Pallas'.

#4&5 are the same bird of course.

Thanks !

1. Is a Yellow-browed Warbler (yellow super and gc-bar with dark bar behind it, green upperparts) and 3. Dusky Warbler (no green or yellow, legs pale behind and dark in front, long and prominent buff super, broad dark eye- and loral stripes). Can't help with others.
