[wisb] Re: Evening Grosbeak?

It looks like Canada warblers do breed in that area.  See 
http://www.uwgb.edu/birds/wbba/species/maps/CAWA.htm
 
But I think Canada warbler would be a lot smaller than an evening grosbeak or a 
robin, and they generally don't look too similar.  And Canada warbler doesn't 
have black wings.  What about blue-winged warbler or orchard oriole?
