Hi !

The voice was lika Garden Warbler, but the strophes seems very short for GW ?

Tarzzz Hi,

To my ear it's too slow for GW, the pace and delivery of the fluted notes sound more like Blackcap, albeit "not typical" song. Possibly a variation on a theme, with some introduced mimic notes of another species?

Sorry can't be more helpful.

Cheers

it's just the very first notes which might stem from a singing bluethroat but the main song in this recording is of a garden warbler.

Yes I will go with GW, I'm used to GW singing longer sustained bursts with a delivery that borders almost on the "neurotic". I can recall "locally" an area of Reed/scrub/ditch where in early Spring, there was Sedge Warbler, Common Whitethroat, Blackcap and Garden Warbler all on occasion "cross" singing...became very confusing at times.
