Patiently searching through hordes of Yellow-rumpeds pays off again.
This morning (22 Jan 2010) I had an "Audubon's" Warbler in the yard.
It was working the same butterfly bush where I had one in Oct 2008.
I got on the bird from about 30 ft and saw the uniformly dark brown
face with broken eye-ring and no trace of pale supercilium, no
extension of the pale throat under the ear patch, and triangular
yellow throat brightest at the bottom and fading to off-white on
the chin. Call note was louder, maybe more emphatic and with a
sharper beginning and ending than "Myrtle" Warbler (I'm horrible
at describing songs).
The bird flew over to a crepe myrtle in the neighbors yard and picked
at some of the berries (didn't appear to eat any). I tried calling
it in with both Audubon's and Myrtle call notes on the iPhone but it
ignored both. Eventually it flew off into the woods.
