[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
These 10-11 cm long warblers have short rounded wings, and a long tapering tail with each feather tipped with black and white. In breeding plumage, adults are grey-brown above, with dark streaking. The underparts are whitish with buff flanks, and the bill is short and black.

The sexes are similar. In winter, adults are brighter sandy brown above with weaker streaking, there is more buff on the sides, and the bill is paler.

There are 12 subspecies, of which P. g. akyildizi, of southern Turkey is the darkest, brownest, and most heavily streaked above, and has the brightest buff flanks.

The long tail is often cocked, and the flight of this species is weak. Like most warblers, Graceful Prinia is insectivorous. The call is a rolling trilled breep, and the song is a hard rolling repletion of zerlip.


Please see this link inorder to have an idea about the size of this little bird, that I found on internet...

Merhaba Alper,
Magnificent capture of this warbler!
You got a very clear and sharp image, details seen on the head are impressive.
The pose of the bird is kind of acrobatic one, and shows so well their ability on the branches.
Great the feeding moment catched.
Congratulations and thanks for share it.
My best regards,
JM
