Small bird of thin beak and dark legs. It has greenish or grayish on the back and whitish on the lower parts. Both sexes are similar, although males are slightly larger than females. It is a virtually identical species in the field to the Iberian chiffchaff, which is distinguished by his singing and for being present in our territory year-round or winter - according to the regions, while the Iberian is an only summer bird. It is a migratory passerine which winters in southern and western Europe, southern Asia and north Africa.
