Observation details
A Siberian Chiffchaff was feeding in the bushes near a marsh. Strikingly pale and cold plumaged individual, recognized at first sight. The bird was silent for a while but then we heard its typical call 2 times. Responded to short playback by showing courtship behaviour. Very active but tame individual. No yellowish tones on head, pale back, slightly greenish wings and tail, white breast. Photographed, presumably first record for İstanbul.
