Warblers IDs please. 4 sets of images from North Bangalore, 13th February 2022 (1 Viewer)

[rsriram9]

Would greatly appreciate IDs for the four sets of warbler images taken in North Bangalore on the shores of two lakes - Madurekere and Hersaraghatta.

MK1_Feb22 and MK2_Feb22 are of one warbler.

MK3_Feb22 and MK4_Feb22 are of another warbler.

MK5_Feb22 and MK6_Feb22 are of a third warbler.

HG1_Feb22, HG2_Feb22 and HG3_Feb22 are of a fourth warbler.

Thanks very much!

To my eye rsriram9, they all look like Iduna warblers.
I’d suggest Booted Warbler for images 1-6 and perhaps Syke’s for the last three (short pp)
That said….you’ll need more input.

Cheers

I'm pretty sure images 1 & 2, and 3 & 4, show Booted Warbler - head is rounded, bill relatively small with a slight mark on the lower mandible, supercilium looks long in three of the images, more upright, pot-bellied stance, relatively long primary projection and short tail, P1 looks to short for Sykes's.

I'm going to pass on the bird in nos. 5 & 6.

I think the bird in nos. 7-9 is Sykes's - long spiky bill, no super after the eye, flat forehead, short primary projection but longer tail, horizontal carriage. It just has that look to it.

Thanks very much Ken and Andy!
