Agree with Ian: 1. African Reed Warbler, (note that Marsh Warbler is not associated with aquatic habitats at all) Sedge Warbler, Little Rush-Warbler. Best Regards Etienne Marais
For my money: Mystery Bird 1. Acrocephalus baeticatus (long since given up the unequal struggle of keeping up with warbler common names) Mystery Bird 2. Acrocephalus schoenobaenus (as you suggest) & finally Mystery Bird 3 Bradypterus baboecala. Yours Ian Macdonald
