Dusky or Radde?
Long Valley, 05-11
This warbler was close to some thickets. A bit intrigued by its bill, which is rather stout. Can it be Radde's rather than Dusky?
Thanks

Typical Dusky, bill looks covered in some sort of material (cobwebs?) which is why it looks thicker.

I have other pictures and it seems that the bill is pretty clean. Will post these later.

fair enough, but everything else fits Dusky Warbler!

Clearly Dusky, note especially the rather thin and dark legs.
