Another Malaysian lifer from SiemReap. It is considered rare sighting in Malaysia. Unlike Cambodia which have plenty of grassland and open fields Malaysia have ex-tin mining areas and pockets of scrub land near wet areas like padi fields, mangrove or jungle fringe. Conducive habitat for warblers can be found in Langkap Perak, Kuala Gula Perak, Matang side Malim Nawar, KSNP Jeram side and Seberang Perai.
Dusky Warbler is a bit drabby and plain. Adults resembles Artic Warbler but has greying -brown upperpart but has dark to greyish-brown uppperparts and its wings have no barring unlike the latter. Its underpart is dirty-whitish and buffish on its breast side and flanks and undertail coverts.
