The Indian reed warbler is a small songbird 13 centimeters long. It lives in dense reed thickets along the banks of rivers and lakes in Asia.
The Indian reed warbler differs from related species by its long pale supercilium and a special song. It is important for nature because it eats harmful insects in wetlands.
Collects prey from plants and from the water surface.
