Thin pale light brown songbird, lighter belly, pointed beak with light legs.

Very agile and the best singer with bright tones and much variation, even at night. Rarely chooses open water plants buts stays closer to shore vegetation, often making its nests in nettles.
Migratory bird eating berries but prefers insects and smaller bugs.

⇔ l. 12-14 cm

The family members are difficult to tell apart, sounding like each other and choosing the same habitat.
