Request help with leaf warbler Sharm, Egypt 15-12-23 (1 Viewer)

Earnest lad

Well-known member
Please may I have advice.
I saw a warbler and expected it to be a Chiffchaff. However I am confused by the dark legs, the strong supercilium, and the ear covert pattern, which all made me think maybe it is a Willow Warbler. Having said that I understand Willow Warbler would be unusual in December, even in N. Africa.
Photo D4-0223 is I think the same individual as the other photos (which are definitely all one.)
If the bird is neither of the two I would be very glad to know about this.
