Thanks a lot for the correction and information. Will try to find the right ID.

Faredin, this is not a willow warbler. It's either a Reed Warbler, or a Marsh Warbler. Both species are very difficult to distinguish by photos alone, they're best told apart by their song. Check Marsh Warbler's song here ( http://www.xeno-canto.org/species/Acrocephalus-palustris ) and Reed Warbler's here ( http://www.xeno-canto.org/species/Acrocephalus-scirpaceus ). If you can't remember, you might have to get back there and decide for yourself. Either way, this is a fantastic spotting since both are very hard to spot. The habitat favours Marsh Warbler but that's not very reliable...

Oh no desk work then lets not exchange :). Soon I will be done with Scandinavia so there will be none posting spottings from here to make you homesick :)

I'll rather work with bugs than this darn logistics report I am currently struggling with :P But again, I enjoy to enjoy "home" through your lens :)

Haha, no worries we can always exchange. You come here and I go there instead of you :)

A beauty! Getting homesick again :D
