Comments
The overall entry is pretty complete, with sections detailing the Sedge Warbler’s distribution and habitat, and most significantly, its behavior. Regarding the focus on mating, the article goes into a few paragraphs of detail about how male Sedge Warblers sing to attract female mates. The section also talks about the specific behavior of the male Sedge Warblers as they are singing, describing how they perform song-flights, rising to a height of several meters, circling, and making a slow descent. Overall, the tone of the article is neutral and professional, with significant references both listed at the bottom of the page as well as in footnotes at the end of sentences throughout the paragraph. Although the sexual selection and mating was covered in great detail, I would have liked to also learn about the development of the Sedge Warbler, or any social behavior besides during mating, including any interactions with other animals. I also think that the Catchpole experiment (1980; Catchpole et al., 1984), where they experimentally discovered that females were more responsive to longer repertoires, could have been included in the article as a short section because it was a significant finding in terms of the behavior of this species.
