All it takes is an overdose of excitement and hasty decision and one can easily go wrong with avian identity.
Sighting this one almost led me to think that the bukit was privileged again to host a newcomer. I guessed it's the lighting and its foraging uncharacteristically low that set my adrenaline overflowing!
On comparison, similarities were established, and it's an Arctic Warbler after all.
It was also fortunate that a couple of days later I managed to come across this moulting warbler which reaffirmed my finding.
An equally heavily moulting Eastern-crowned Warbler was seen foraging in the same bird wave, thus offering an opportune comparison.
Almost fooled by an accidental lighting, again.
The moment of truth.
