Hi all,

I am having a problem identifying this bird. I saw it on the 20th of October in the top of a small tree in the Hotel Park. It was smaller than the White Eared bulbul and was flying with another bird in almost constant motion. The Merlin App gave me Eastern Olivaceous Warbler, which has Doha in its range. I don't think it is such a good match but I am still a bit of a novice.

As an aside does anyone know of a good place to bird or a local birder looking for some company. I am only in town for another day.

Thanks

Fritz Leip

Hi Fritz,

I think the Merlin App has given you a reasonable candidate based on the supplied images.

Cheers

...or Willow Warbler?
