Observation details
There was no way to enter the Hermit x Black-throated gray Warbler Hybrid I found this morning in a mixed species flock. So it is entered here as warbler sp. It was a stunning bird, photos taken. I have solicited the help from various Parulid experts and there is agreement that the id is correct. This is a particularly rare hybrid with probably fewer than 10 known or reported. See series of photos.
