Photographed last week East Lothian, Scotland. On river bank.

Is it a willow warbler?

Phylloscopus warblers (willow warbler is one) don't have stripey upperparts and a big fat pale supercilium. In the UK, that would have to be a sedge warbler or very rare. This one's sitting on (I think) common comfrey (though Russian comfrey would be the more widespread one there).
