Pic 2 shows a sylvia warbler. I thought structure and plumage details would establish that from the outset (plumage is not right for Cetti's, its in a place where Cetti's wouldn't be found unless they were hopelessly lost etc), and it is also not a Nightingale (I think most reasons why it isn't have been mentioned so I won't bother raising them again, apart from to find a Nightingale hopping around in broad daylight in bracken would be quite remarkable).
So yes, it is a sylvia warbler. It has a clear white throat, a greyish tinge to the face and head, and a bit of an eyering going on.
It is a Whitethroat.
