Having some trouble making the call here...I feel like I saw two different birds. The last bird I spotted near water/bridge area of Cordoba and I'm thinking Cetti's Warbler. Other shots were in the park and I feel like maybe just Chiffchaff?

Hello,

pictures 1, 3, 4 and 5 shows Chiffchaff or the similar Iberian Chiffchaff. There are several threads (including recent ones) here on BF.

Picture 6 shows a Cettis Warbler. Please note short, rounded wings and a full, graduated tail. More colours fits this species as narrow and bowed/bended supercilium.

The second picture is the hardest for me, but imo its another Cettis Warbler. Really narrow supercilium (some kind of faded and just a part well contrasting), slightly curved and spikey bill (and greyish breast-sides and flanks?) gives this bird a Cettis jizz imo.
