Spotted
A small, rather pale warbler with a distinctive short primary projection, which gives it a 'booted' appearance. It breeds across parts of northern Asia.
Where to spot
Breeds across northern and central Asia, from Eastern Europe eastward, in open woodland, scrub, and bushy areas. Winters in India and Southeast Asia.
How to spot
Look for a small, plain, pale brown warbler with a distinct pale supercilium and a short primary projection. It often bobs its tail. Its song is a fast, rattling, rather dry trill.
When to spot
Best observed during the breeding season (May-July) in its northern range. Migrants are seen during spring (April-May) and autumn (August-October) along its migratory routes.

The common name 'Booted Warbler' likely refers to its relatively short primary projection (the visible part of the flight feathers when the wing is folded), which can make its overall appearance seem compact or 'booted.'
