The Sardinian warbler is a small passerine bird found primarily in scrublands, maquis, and Mediterranean regions. It is easily recognized by its light gray plumage, brown back, and pale belly. This bird is primarily insectivorous, feeding on small prey such as insects and spiders, which it captures by rummaging through bushes and vegetation. It is also known for its melodious song and discreet movements in the underbrush.

Photography tips:
Photograph the Sardinian warbler using a telephoto lens to capture its discreet movements and moments of singing.

Be ready to capture a moment when the bird emerges from a bush to sing or forage.
