(delhibirdpix) Lemon Rumped Warbler (not Brooks), New Delhi

Apologies for posting a bird with incorrect ID. This is not a Brooks's Leaf warbler as I posted earlier but rather a pair of Lemon(Pale) Rumped Warblers.

ID pointers are as follows:

1.) Eye stripe forms a hook behind the eye

2.) Colour of rump is yellowish white as compared to pale green on Brooks's(3rd &4th photo)

3.) Lack of yellow suffusion on the underparts

4.) Crown stripe is strong and sides of crown are dark

A great bird to get in my very own garden. Poor quality of shots is regretted. They were taken around sunset and at a distance.

(Sorry for blatantly exceeding the file size limit. But all of these angles are neccesary to confirm ID)
