help identify this bird

I did post this on another forum but curious what you think?

I think it is a garden warbler. Taken last August in parks/garden. Seems to match the description given in"A Field Guide to the Warblers" by Alick Moore

The beak looks very long for a garden warbler and the paler iris also looks wrong. How about juvenile barred warbler?

Hi-

definitely an Acro:

the feet look a little pale but the light is very bright in places and I can't see pale Primary tips so
I'm in the Reed Warbler camp

Hi

Reed Warblers turn up in odd places on autumn migration - one in a city centre tree near a car park springs to mind...
