The Oriental Reed Warbler is a widespread migratory warbler across East Asia, distinguished by its larger size compared to many other reed warblers. It is a common inhabitant of large reedbeds.
Where to spot
Breeds across East Asia (from Siberia to China, Korea, Japan) in extensive reedbeds, marshes, and tall grasses. Winters widely in Southeast Asia and Australia.
How to spot
Search dense reedbeds and marshy areas. Listen for its loud, distinctive song, which can carry a long distance. Look for it climbing reeds or perching on top, often singing vigorously.
When to spot
Breeding season (summer) in its northern range, and during migration (spring/autumn) across its vast flyway. Present in wintering grounds from autumn to spring.

This species has a powerful and varied song, often described as 'churring' or 'creaking', which it delivers loudly from prominent perches within the reeds.
