Willow Warbler? (1 Viewer)

[keps]

I get confused- Willow Warbler or Chiffchaff!

Think this is the former.

Any help much appreciated!

Taken today -banks of the Dodder River, Dublin, Ireland

Hello,
its a Chiffchaff:
olive-brown and greenish colours and "dirty" underparts, most Willows are cleaner with paler/whitish underparts
blackish legs
head pattern with narrow distinct whitish eye-ring looks better for Chiffchaff than for Willow
PP seems short, but difficult to judge because its hidden behind a twig, but a long-winged Woillow can be excluded

Many thanks Alexander

This is the same bird a few seconds earlier- but that twig still in the way

Yes, but you can see the short primary projection.
