Fancsika Pond: Icterine Warbler

I've made another try at Fancsika pond this morning.
Having a drought the birds appear quite soon, they are eager to come to the water. Tits are the first to arrive, but the warblers are also coming soon, first a chiffchaff ...:

... then a willow warbler lands:

Then a blackcap and a robin comes to have a bath:

Another bird appears on the landing branch, it's like a willow warbler but a bit greater. Wow! I'm very pleased to see an icterine warbler for the first time!

However it can't get to the water as something scares the birds so they fly away.
When they return, a pied flycatcher is also landing:

Then as a surprise, cows appear behind me, so further photography attempts would make no sense.
