Common reed warbler - singing perched on a reed.
Adding: I have been informed that it is more likely that this is a sedge warbler.

First time I actually saw these shy warblers. They really don't like to show their faces for very long. They were collecting bugs for their fledglings. I actually got to see the first pic's birds lil family after I left the hide.

Sedge warbler Oare Marshes.. by Adam Swaine
Via Flickr:
In summer, the sedge warbler can be spotted singing from a reed or willow perch in wetlands across the UK. Males never sing the same song twice, adding new phrases to impress the females.Favors marshy and scrubby habitats with reeds, brambles, and bushes, usually not in extensive pure reed beds; can be found in drier habitats on migration.

Bempton Cliffs and Flamborough June 2024
The head iconic, the cliffs tall,
Covered in white, Gannets galore,
Kittiwakes too, with their soothing call,
Guillemots, Razorbills and more,
You have to examine the crevices for the sea clown,
Exotic billed Puffins that can hide,
Entranced by elegant Fulmars one could never frown,
As in the wind they effortlessly glide,
Tree Sparrows chatter, Swallows and House Martins attend the nest,
Short-eared and Barn Owl a captivating sight,
Seeing which can excite you best,
Yellow, pink and white meadows awakened by sunlight,
The sea an uplifting shade of blue,
Like seeing a marsh orchid, in the water is a treasure,
The intimate moment to have a Grey Seal stare at you,
Painted Lady and other butterflies add to the pleasure,
Silver Y, Sedge Warbler and Whitethroat,
Chiffchaff, Stonechat and Reed Bunting bringing more elation,
So relaxed I could almost float,
Vising Bempton Cliffs and Flamborough I feel a gratifying sensation,

The song may be compared to that of the Sedge warbler, but is more powerful; some harsh notes and some very high ones, being mingled with a pleasant warbling.
