The architect of this nest is the Reed Waebler {Salicaria [or Gurruca] arundinacea). It is a pretty little bird, bright brown above, yellow-brown below. In some respects it resembles the sedge warbler, but does not possess the remarkable wedge-shaped tail of that bird. E. Mudie, in his History of British Birds, offers the following suggestion respecting this difference of form. When treating of the sedge warbler, he remarks that the slender head, pointed bill, and wedge-shaped tail are useful to the bird by ena- bling it to glide between the tall aquatic plants among which it resides and finds its food.
