Chiffchaf

            The Chiffchaff , Phylloscopus collybita is a small leaf warbler, with a plain olive green plumage with brown hints and buff underparts. Chiffchaffs are almost indistinguishable from Willow warblers and the two birds  are often confused. It is about the same size as a Blue tit and has many similar behaviours to a tit being energetic, lively and quick, especially when among trees and shrubs. In fact, the Chiffchaff is famed for its distinctive, quick tail-wagging movements. Both females and male Chiffchaffs are similar in appearance; the only discernable difference is that the female is slightly smaller than male. The best chance of observing a Chiffchaff is by visiting a lowland woodland area, although they do sometimes visit parks and gardens. Listen for their song (chiff-chaff, chiff-chaff) as they tend to dwell high up trees at the top, especially in wooded areas. Watching the Chiffchaff can be difficult, as they are quick and relatively well-hidden birds.
