How does one distinguish between a first year Myrtle Warbler male and
female -- I note buffy wing bars, so it is first year, correct?    Then,
looking at the face mask coming in, it might have a little more black as on
a male,  than that of a female, and yellow top,  if male,  not visible at
all at this point.
Here is the bird in question:  (5 poses)
