Title: RFI: drab warbler ID needed
Post by: killdozer on May 15, 2008, 01:12:41 PM

Well, wanted, I suppose.

I had some great opportunities this morning to see Magnolia, Chestnut-sided and Yellow Warblers, Blue-gray Gnatcatchers, Warbling Vireos, Gray Catbirds and LOTS of battling Orioles.

This little one I wasn't sure about, however.

Olive-brown on top, Yellow with very faint streaks on bottom, no wing bars, no pronounced eye ring. I want to say Orange-crowned, but would like to hear other opinions.

Thanks in advance,

I agree with Orange-crowned, you could even see a hint of its crown in the first picture.
