These photos were taken Nov. 28 at Karoo National Park in South Africa. Same marsh, about 25 minutes apart. Pretty sure they are 2 different birds judging by eye color. Any help with ID would be appreciated.

In the absence of other replies, I'll at least say threy're a species of Acrocephalus. I'd venture African Reed Warbler, but get other opinions.
 
I note very short pp....and emarginations on 3 and 4 falling within the tertial area, that's got to be worth something. :eek!:

Cheers
