   Most probably a Blyth's reed warbler ( Acrocephalus Dometurum ) . We cannot very safely exclude a Caspian reed warbler , however color of head and whatever visible of upperparts in addition to bill pattern are more in favor of Blyth's

   Thank you Bassel! У нас в подвидах нет указанный Бассельем - Common Reed Warbler (Caspian)
   Acrocephalus scirpaceus fuscus, надо бы описание, скорее всего его многие фоткали.

   Hi Qanatbek . I assume that the reed warblers breeding in Kazakhstan are of race " Fuscus " showing colder brown coloration compared to nominate " Scirpaceus " . They tend to be paler as you go east . Also hint of greyish color on mantle . Check this one https://kz.birding.day/v2photo.php?l=en&s=063100047&n=1&si=kaz
