Icterine or willow (1 Viewer)

Hi guys. I photographed this warbler today in Istanbul/Turkey. The bill seems a little longer for a willow warbler, which in this case made icterine warbler a possibility. I would like to hear your words please. Thanks.

It's not a Phylloscopus with that monster bill.
Unless I do it first, someone else will ask you if you have any more photos of it...

I agree with Butty in both points. More pictures are helpful here, with a bird in such a bad posture (for ID), and that it looks good for an Icterines Wabler on first jizz-impression/gut-feeling.
it seems large headed, with the right bill shape, but yes, this is hard to judge. And I see yellow and greenish hues, therefore other rarer ones (EOW) can be excluded.

i think we can safely call it an Icterine Warbler. even wing length seems to be possible to discern in this pic, with the longer wing in Icterine than in (an unlikely vagrant) Melodious W.
