5 Bright-capped Cisticola is very impressive! Does it show breeding plumage - more bright cap and shorter tail?

These birds were identified mostly by call.  I heard them in two different spots.  I did see two birds. One of which was in very poor plumage condition and seemed to be lacking it's tail almost completely. I would have thought it was Zitting Cisticola if I didn't hear it call.

I will add some pictures later.

22 April,
Long-toed stints (at least 4)
Water Rail
Cinnamon Bittern
male Bluethroat
no sign of the Ruddy-breasted Crake which people spotted last week.

Saw a farmer spreading herbicide on the grass/reeds where the Water Rail is hiding. Is it acceptable practice?

Ronaldo,
Spraying herbicides and insecticides are common practices for local farmers to remove unwanted weeds and pests.
