Brown woodland warbler

Brown woodland warbler (Phylloscopus umbrovirens)

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 warbler is a bit smaller than Chiffchaffs and got very beautiful song.

hope you like it.
