Hi Ruth

from the detail I can see, dark legs, light brown head, chest with only a hint of yellow wash, and apparently blunt tipped wings (altho this feature very blurred) I would go for juv Chiffchaff

Wood Warbler would be yellower brown, slightly plumper bodied and have a deeper notch in it's tail

cheers, John
