Observation details
Big buffy warbler with a large bill and black eyeline. I came across this bird on the path above the marina near Pier 5 at about 9:20am - it was accommodating and very vocal. I did not have my camera or regular binoculars, just my little 10x25s. I knew this bird would draw a crowd, but I was deathly afraid of screwing up and misidentifying it, so I breathlessly called Mike Yuan, hoping he was also birding in the park, and told him I thought I had a Swainson's Warbler. Mike was away but confirmed the photo. Jer was first on the scene, followed by Lucas and Catherine. Unfortunately I couldn't stick around to enjoy the bird more.
