Observation details

Just as I was about to take the exit trail out near the kiosk, a what I thought was a YRWA zipped past my face and landed 10 feet away at eye level. Luckily I decided to look at it since I like YRWA's, but I quickly realized it was a familiar annual overshoot! It quickly moved deep into the brush and disappeared for a while. A fairly long warbler with a long bill, mainly blue grey back with white "eyebrow", dark eye line that leads vertically downward forming a black mask that borders the bright yellow chin down to upper breast. Sloppy dark streaks on white chest that continues white down to the undertail. It took me a while to relocate twice but eventually put on a great show for me. This bird is definitely worthy of the Pillsbury doughboy belly poke!
