It is a partial migrant, with a proportion of the population wintering in Cyprus; of those that migrate, some travel as far as southern Sudan. This small perching song bird is a short-distance migrant, and winters in Israel, Jordan and Egypt. It can be seen in dry open country, often on hill slopes, and builds its nests in low shrubs. It lays 3-5 eggs. The Cyprus Warbler is classified as a Species of European Conservation Concern Category 2(Category 2 consists of Species whose global populations are concentrated in Europe and which have an Unfavourable Conservation Status in Europe).
