Sandpiper (?), possible marsh warbler, Cottbus, Germany (1 Viewer)

[Henry_Flower]

Hi, can anyone help with a couple of IDs? Both in a wetland habitat near Cottbus in Germany.

Bird one in the pictures (same bird) -- is this a common sandpiper?

Bird 2 in the audio file -- there are are a few birds audible, but Birdnet suggested that one is a marsh warbler -- does this seem right? (I've kept the whole recording rather than editing because I'm not sure what could be a marsh warbler imitating, and what's actually a different bird.)

Yes common sandpiper. Note the white patch near the wing bend

That I cannot hear it myself doesn't mean it's not there, but I do hear a nightingale (probably Common on range)--even more so when I see the sonogram--which accounts for a large chunk of the foreground noise. I think I can also hear another nightingale whistling in the background very faintly, starting from around 0:19. https://birdnet.cornell.edu/api/ has been down for a few days, so I can't check whether it hears a nightingale as well, i.e. if I'm contributing something new to the discussion. Anyway, I like this article about reed warbler songs--have you seen it (it also includes plastic songs and pretty elaborate plates): 9 - In your dreams - The Sound Approach.

Interesting link -- I need to take some time to read through that one!
