hi
recorded this audio today in downtown Tehran(very noisy!). the quality is not good but in the secound half of the audio i think the warbler call is identifiable.
i think it's a mountain chiffchaff but i'm not sure.

I've no experience with Mountain Chiffchaff, but what I hear on your recording doesn't sound like Common!

ehsan Hi,

Check out Xenno Canto...XC 193395, the call ''se-u'' sounds a perfect match to my ear for P.lorenzii (Caucasian Mountain Chiff Chaff).

Cheers

Call-wise I would rather expect a tristis Chiffchaff than a Mountain Chiffchaff.
I don't know what's going on in eastern Chiffchaffs though?
