It was a big surprise that a streaky-breasted youngster at the Meadow's east 
edge turned out to be a fledgling Yellow-rumped Warbler!  An adult male was 
close by.   Pretty neat confirming breeding there.  Dave Wendelken and I were 
birding and hunting butterflies; we agreed the warbler was "critter of the 
day!"   The birds were in a pine along with a fledgling Pine Warbler.
