It is so hard to ID the warblers  
 
Mai Po Natural Reserve 米埔
13/12/2004  
EOS 10D, 400/5.6, Heavy Cropping  
 
Pallas's Warbler?? Can't see its waist in this picture, some other pictures show white or pale yellow waist.  

 
 
Dusky warbler? (just a wild guess....) Notice the ring on the right leg.

Let me try the first one
#1 Pallas's Leaf Warbler 黃腰柳鶯
1)obviously yellow crown stripe
2)White fringes on tertials
3)two white wing bars
4)stand on tree
5)black bill
6)extra small in size (guess by the leaf and branch)
7)a bit of yellow at the rump
 
Don't laugh too loud and teach me if I am wrong

Sorry Sir!
#2 Dusky Warbler 褐柳鶯
1)It's brown and no stripe on wings
2)bill proportionally thinner than Radde's Warbler
3)the end of lateral crown stripes not "Nike" shape
 
don't kick me if I am wrong
