    Menetries's warbler

    very beautiful warblers and fun to watch. got addicted on crushed peanuts. Males have a blackish hood, gradually merging into paler neck and mantle. In all plumages wings very plain. Females and young have cold-toned underparts, lacking warmer flanks of Sardinian Warbler. from e bird.
