Chiffchaff or Willow Warbler? (2 Viewers)

As Butty says, leg colour should point towards Willow W. I can't but I am (almost) sure others can tell it by 'reading' the *marginations on its primaries. (P6 emarginated or not)

cheers,
Gerben

Hello,

I agree with Butty and Richard and Gerben, its a Willow Warbler.

And I think, this bird has only 3 emarginations, adding more confidence to the orangeybrown legs, the extensive pale orange bill-base and the bright and smooth mossygren and yellow hues
