dc.description.abstract | While ringing in a maize-field at Lunzjata, Gozo on 5 September 1986, an unfamiliar Acxocephalus warbler was found in one of the mist-nets. The bird's upperparts were similar to those of a Reed Warbler Acrocephalus scirpaceus but with a slightly pale rufous rump. It had a conspicuous whitish supercilium which was well marked behind the eye. The underparts were whitish with a very pale tinge of buff on the throat, breast and belly. The flanks had a light olive-brown wash. The legs were pinkish with yellow soles, and the iris was olive brown. It was identified as a Paddyfield Warbler Acrocephalus agricola. | en_GB |
