Title: Yellow Bird - Not a goldfinch
Post by: skyviewer on June 01, 2009, 01:07:23 AM

I'm thinking maybe a yellow warbler.  It looked a little smaller than a gold finch but chubbier.  It had a lovely song.  There were a few of them singing to eachother but this was the only one i managed to see.

Here's a pic and thanks for the help

You are thinking right! It is a Yellow Warbler.

I love those little guys ... they're so beautiful.  My wife nearly freaked when she first saw it, as we both knew it wasn't a gold finch, as well.  She quickly ripped open our field book to find out what it was.

Nice picture, Skyviewer!
