The Lesser Whitethroat moved through the bushes catching small insects. It apparently eats berries too, but the whole time I was watching, it was eating small insects only.

Continuing from the photo above — after finishing the first insect, it caught another of the same species sitting on the same branch.

Small bird, but I understand the Lesser Whitethroat breeds in temperate Europe and western and central Asia, then migrates as far as the Sahara, Arabia, and Africa to winter.

Head-on, it looks like it's wearing a bandit mask. ^^

It was often around wild roses, and I thought it might be eating the red berries, but apparently not.

On this individual, the white eye-ring and supercilium are also striking.

I've picked shots where it came out into the open, but essentially it was moving through scrub like this the whole time.
