	Zitting Cisticola - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Zitting Cisticola, Cisticola juncidis, is an Old World warbler in the genus Cisticola.
		Male cisticolas are polygamous; the female builds a discreet nest deep in the grasses, often binding living leaves into the soft fabric of felted plant-down, cobwebs, and grass.
		The Zitting Cisticola's nest is a cup shape with a canopy of tied-together leaves or grasses overhead for camouflage; 3-6 eggs are laid.

	Cisticola (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Cisticolas are very small insectivorous birds formerly classified in the Old World warbler family Sylviidae, but now usually considered to be in the family Cisticolidae, along with other southern warbler genera.
		The Zitting Cisticola (or Fan-tailed Warbler) is widespread throughout the tropics and even breeds in southern Europe.
		Despite his size and well-camouflaged, brown-streaked plumage, the male Golden-headed Cisticola of Australia produces a small, brilliant splash of golden-yellow colour in the dappled sunlight of a reed bed.

		The crown had very bold striations, bolder than any female Golden-headed Cisticola I have seen, and the call was also bold: a long "zit zit zit zit" (often repeated - apparently a cisticola habit).
		Beehler and Pratt differentiate the call made when sitting (a ticking) from the call made when flying (zit zit zit) and I do recall some variation as it moved from one thicket to another.
		I have been seeing Golden-headed Cisticola for more than 30 years and have them around our home here on campus - so are very familiar with their three calls.

		cisticola: Derives from Cistus, the botanical genus of the rock rose (from Greek kistos, the rock rose, derived from kist(a box or capsule, often woven from slips or twigs); Latin colo, to inhabit.
		Clinning (1989) suggests that the name is derived from Latin cisterna, a reservoir, and incola, an inhabitant, referring to an inhabitant of wet places; he also gives cista, a basket woven of twigs, and may refer to the type of nests built by cisticolas.
		These Cisticolas are very small birds measuring 10-12 cm; above tawny buff, streaked flish brown (paler in winter, streaks more distinctly continuous); rump plain bright tawny; below white, washed yellowish buff on breast and flanks (breast white when breeding); tail medium, fanned in flight, flish brown, tipped fl and white.

	In Spain’s Secret Wilderness Bird Watching Report
		Saturday 8th May. On arrival at Madrid we met Stephen, our second leader, and Ron and Sue who had flown direct from Manchester and once the formalities of getting our mini buses had been completed we were soon driving around the M40 (Madrid’s equivalent of London’s M25) and onto the A5 heading for Trujillo.
		We made one stop for birdwatching near to Orepesa and enjoyed views of species such as White Storks, Black and Red Kites, Montagu’s Harrier, Red-rumped Swallows, Spotless Starlings and Zitting Cisticola.
		As we approached Trujillo the outline of the old town perched on the top of a hill loomed closer and in the early evening sunshine we pulled into the Finca Santa Marta to sound of Nightingales, Azure-winged Magpies and Golden Orioles.

		This gave us all a chance to catch up with some birds we had been hearing and glimpsing from the vans including zitting cisticola (which showed well), cirl bunting and fl-shouldered kite.
		The reedbeds were full of reed and sedge warblers all singing away, but drowned out by the incessant racket created by the ever present zitting cisticolas.

		Having picked our favourite goodies for lunch, we head west and were soon out and scanning the banks of the Garonne for Black Redstart, Serin and Little Egrets, while whole squadrons of Black Kites reeled and squealed overhead.
		In fields nearby a flight Zitting Cisticola drove us dotty and a singing Cirl Bunting stayed hidden, but the Buddleias produced more obliging butterflies galore - from Silver-washed Fritillaries right down to a wonderful Map.
