	Marsh Warbler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Marsh Warbler, Acrocephalus palustris, is an Old World warbler in the genus Acrocephalus.
		It can be confused with the Reed Warbler, but is greyer on the back, the forehead is less flattened and the bill is less strong and pointed.
		Like most warblers, the Marsh Warbler is insectivorous, but will take other small food items including berries.

	Old World warbler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Old World Warblers, family Sylviidae, are a group of more than 280 small insectivorous passerine bird species.
		The largely southern warbler family Cisticolidae is traditionally often included in the Sylviidae.
		The American Wood warblers, Parulidae, and the Australian warblers, Acanthizidae, are unrelated to the Sylviidae.

		I predicted that (1) yellow warblers in the population allopatric with cowbirds would not respond with seet calls or nest-protection behaviour to any stimuli, and (2) that the populations would differ in their responses to the models and playbacks.
		West of the diversion, yellow warblers nested in the forested dune-ridge that separates Lake Manitoba from the surrounding marsh.
		Yellow warblers from the Delta Marsh population have a relatively higher natal philopatry (11.3 % of 1152 fledglings banded; J. Briskie in Weatherhead and Forbes 1994) compared with a second population (none of 81 nestlings banded returned to unstated location; R. Robertson in Weatherhead and Forbes 1994).

		Like other warblers it is highly active, searching its habitat of shrubs and dense vegetation for food.
		Although thought to have a secure population within Europe, the UK population of marsh warblers has fallen and is now of serious conservation concern.
		It is a summer visitor to the UK, arriving on its breeding grounds much later than its close relative, the reed warbler, typically from late May to mid-June.

		Yep and I reckon that picture would be appropriate for a Marsh Warbler "seen" anywhere in Britain in March or December.
		Interesting that the eventual consensus seems to be that it couldn't have been a Marsh Warbler, based on the date being too early....

	EGG REJECTION IN MARSH WARBLERS (ACROCEPHALUS PALUSTRIS) HEAVILY PARASITIZED BY COMMON CUCKOOS (CUCULUS CANORUS) Auk, ...
		The Marsh Warbler's ability to reject foreign eggs was strongly dependent on the degree of mimicry of the parasite egg but apparently not on differences in size between host and foreign eggs.
		The Marsh Warbler's highly developed egg-recognition ability and the good mimicry of Common Cuckoo eggs suggests that this poorly known host-parasite arms race has reached an advanced stage.
		To obtain knowledge of sensitivity in Marsh Warbler rejection behavior, we investigated whether there was a difference in rejection rate between artificial nonmimetic cuckoo eggs, real Great Reed Warbler (A. arundinaceus) eggs, real conspecific eggs, real but painted conspecific eggs (experimental parasitism), and real cuckoo eggs (natural parasitism).

	Action plan for Acrocephalus palustris
		The marsh warbler is a summer migrant which formerly bred in scattered locations across southern England, but a long-term decline became apparent from the 1950s when there were probably well over 100 breeding pairs.
		The marsh warbler is specially protected under Schedule 1 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and EC Birds Directive, and is listed on Appendix II of the Bern Convention.
		Acquire information on marsh warbler ecology from researchers in Europe and east Africa, in order to learn more about the factors determining habitat requirements during the breeding season, and survival on migration and during winter.

		This increase in Marsh Warblers, in turn, had the effect of reducing the numbers of so-called minor species caught by the simple process of excluding them from the nets.

		Hi Mike, you've entered a minefield re; warbler ID. I agree with Des in that a Marsh Warbler is very similar to many others in appearance but can be said to be very rare where you saw your bird.
		It is estimated that the breeding population of Reed Warbler in the UK exceeds 60,000 pairs.
		I have to admit after reading all the comments and studying anything I can find on Marsh Warblers, that I must have seen a Reed Warbler.It appears that it is far to early for it to possibly be the bird I thought it was.

		Juvenile Marsh Warblers' distribution was clumped, but there was no significant trend in the number of juveniles along the shore—open water gradient (R2 = 0.07).
		Adult Marsh Warblers' distribution was random in the reed bed.
		The investigation of food dispersion in a reed bed, the vegetation structure and the interspecific competition among reed warblers is required to better understand the habitat selection of reed warblers.

	The Kelynack Warbler - some comments - surfbirds.com
		On only 16% of Marsh Warblers is it this short - on the remaining 84% it is level to or longer than p4 (on 1% of 1st winters it is even longer than p3!).
		The emargination of p3 on Marsh is nearer the wing tip - falling roughly equal to p7; here it seems to fall at arround p10, and with the length of p2, it tends to confirm a Reed Warbler of some sort.
		As a final "throw-away" comment, I would suspect that many claims of Marsh Warbler from the second half of October are very likely not.
