Title: Leslie Street Spit help with IDs
Post by: jjmb on May 24, 2008, 10:10:10 PM

Saw a whole load of birds at the Spit today (at least 58 species), but there were these two that I am having trouble ID-ing, in spite of the many books open on my desk. Please help. I think the first is a pine warbler and the second is a warbling vireo. I have photos, but for the life of me can't figure out how to post them here. If someone can tell me how, that will save me trying to provide inaccurate descriptions.

Thanks.

You can go to www.photobucket.com (http://www.photobucket.com) and register for free

Then you can upload your photos to your album there and then simply copy the image URL for each photo (IMG Code) and paste it in your post

(left click once on the words "IMG Code" below the photo which will copy the URL to you clipboard.......then come here and right click and "paste")

Sorry it took me so long to get these loaded. Not super pictures, but hopefully good enough for ID purposes.

There is 1 picture of what I was first thinking most resembles a pine warbler, but not sure at all.
2 photos of what I originally thought was a warbling vireo, but now am contemplating female Redstart.

Anyway, your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I think you are right about the Warbling Vireo, but suspect that the more yellow bird is a female Black-throated Green Warbler.
