Warbler and Stonechat, Al Soudach Creek, Saudi Arabia (3 Viewers)

Hi,
Can you help me?
Is it possible to id this warbler?
Is number two an African Stonechat?

Need sunglasses for the Stonechat.😮

The Warbler is a Phylloscopus and looks like a Chiffchaff however, it appears to have bright lime green wings and tail…that has me puzzled somewhat.

Now believe the Phylloscopus warbler to be a Brown Woodland Warbler.

Cheers

It did remind me of that species as well, not that I know.

Brown woodland warbler

not quite sure if this is a lifer, i have posted a shot for one before, i think March 2022 but not 100% sure of the ID, here those yellow green fringes in flight and tail feathers, are showing very well, so i will consider it lifer No5. this...

From your images it is hard to ID the stonechat, but Al Soudah Creek is a well-known location for African Stonechat, so that is a likely ID.

I agree with Brown Woodland Warbler for the Phylloscopus. Predominantly yellow bill and bright green fringes to the flight feathers.
