Hey all,
I had a female Canada Warbler circa 11 a.m. yesterday at Benson Pond.
Female bird. It was in the second of the willows in the entry row of huge
willows. I had a clear, unobstructed view from about 15 feet (8 feet
high) for about 15-20 seconds. It then went farther back into the tree
and I lost it. I continued to look for 30-40 minutes to try to get a photo
but it didn't reappear.
Noted well:
- blue-ish or dark gray upperparts (sans wingbars)
- Conspicuous eye ring with very conspicuous (on this bird) yellow supra
loral
- Entire underparts yellow with the exception of.....
- White undertail coverts
streaking (necklace) must not have been very pronounced as I did not note it
good birding,
Tom
