www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/birdguide/name/s/sedgewarbler/in...

Latin name
Acrocephalus schoenobaenus

Family
Warblers and allies (Sylviidae)

Overview
The sedge warbler is a small, quite plump, warbler with a striking broad creamy stripe above its eye, and greyish brown legs. It is brown above with blackish streaks and creamy white underneath. It is a summer visitor, and winters in Africa, south of the Sahara Desert. Its song is a noisy, rambling warble compared to the more rhythmic song of the reed warbler.

Where to see them
Found across the UK. A good place to try in summer is near a reedbed or a damp wetland, particularly near dawn and dusk when sedge warblers are most active. Look for singing birds perched on the outside of a bush.

When to see them
Mid-April to mid-October.

What they eat
Insects; berries in autumn

UK breeding - 321,000 territories

This is the song of the Sedge Warbler
