About These Birds

Aquatic Warbler

The Aquatic Warbler is a vulnerable migratory reed warbler weighing about 13 grams with a wingspan near 12 cm, breeding in sedge fens of central and eastern Europe. It is the only globally threatened migratory passerine in continental Europe, with a distinctive streaked buff and brown plumage and prominent pale supercilium. Drainage of its specialized wetland breeding habitat has caused sharp population declines.

Anjouan Brush-warbler

The Anjouan Brush-warbler is a medium-sized acrocephalid warbler endemic to the island of Anjouan in the Comoros archipelago, weighing around 19 grams. It inhabits dense undergrowth and scrubby vegetation, foraging for insects low in the vegetation. Its long tail is distinctive among the brush-warblers.
