Observation details
The bird photographed has a black throat, white wing bars, and some yellow colouring just before the under tail coverts at the rear flanks. These characteristics all match the description of a Black Throated Green Warbler. Plus, the audio obtained sounds identical in comparison and matches the spectrograms of a BTGW. I’ve was a little hesitant to submit this due to some potential Townsend Warbler hybrid characteristics present. But as the audio duplicates the song of a BTGW, combined with the field marks indicated above, I have decided to submit this sighting as a Black Throated Green Warbler. Photos and audio provided.
