Prinias?? South India, Aug to Nov (1 Viewer)

I think the first one is a plain prinia. The second looks like ashy prinia to me. Can someone confirm and also ID the third bird. Thanks a lot.

I think both are Plain Prinias. The left hand bird may look washed with yellow but it has a red eye and orbital ring and a bold supercilium, so I think it might just be an optical effect.

I am sorry, I am getting confused. Are you saying the first and third may be the same bird (plain prinia) and the middle one is ashy prinia?

Yes. Sorry if I didn't make myself clear. I was responding to Satyachil's e-mail, where he referred to "the other two".
