Both willow warblers in my opinion.

The first is certain, the other one might be a chiffchaff.

Both WW's for me too.....there's just a hint of light legs in the 2nd shot.

Thanks. These things will take a while to understand. I just went and totally confused myself at the IBC.

Right, I think I am slowly getting to grips with this Warbler stuff. Not totally clear in the picture, but when I saw him he definately had dark Legs so this is a Chiffchaff - right??.
