| Remarks : | Unlike other leaf warblers found in Delhi, which inhabit trees or rocky areas... it was seen at Basai in the wetlands. It was seen feeding on the water hyacinth (not eating it) which was surrounded by Typha grass. It had a disyllabic call...much weaker than the call of Moustached Warbler or Blyth's Reed Warbler. - PG |
