  • Yellow forecrown, with the rest of the crown gray
  • Yellow patch on dark wing
  • Pink and black sharp bill
  • The underparts are moulting into the gray and white mix of the adult female. We can see gray pin feathers on the underparts.
  • Gray eyeline

   The Golden-winged Warbler is a new species to our Photographic Life List, which now stands at 982.
