BREEDING FEMALE TENNESSEE WARBLER, PRINCE EDWARD POINT NATIONAL WILDLIFE AREA, MILFORD, ON

   We can ID this warbler as a breeding female Tennesse Warbler as follows:
  • Short, sharp bill.
  • Short darkish gray tail.
  • Grayish crown with dark eyeline and white eyebrow.
  • Yellow throat and neck and breast lightly washed yellow.
  • Undertail coverts white tinged with yellow.
  • Greenish back.
This photo was taken a week ago, but we were just able to definitively identify the bird.

   The Tennessee Warbler is a new species to our Life List, which now stands at 302.
