Деталі спостереження
Saw a warbler flying in pine tree and landed on ground on occasion, took what photos I could so people with more migratory warbler experience could ID. Would describe the bird as a whole as follows: Bird was colored largely grey and yellow. Bird had yellow breast, yellow lower head, and yellow stripes above the eyes along with yellow lines below the eyes. Had a greyish mask which started at the beak and went lower below the head, save the bit of yellow below the eyes. Wings were mostly grey with some black streaking and a little bit of white. Two gray bars beneath each wing. Lower breast looks white but could be due to photo quality. Tail is white with two gray streaks on each side. Originally thought it was a more common Female Blackburnian but upon putting it in iNaturalist, Jen Brumfield ID'd it as a Townsend's, which was a big surprise with learning how rare those are here. See here: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/132980567 Gray "mask" pattern seems to both extend further back and be starker than would be expected for a Blackburnian Warbler. Prairie Warbler Color was also taken into mind but given that photos were touched up in Lightroom, might be less worth taking into account. Prairie Warbler was mentioned as another potential ID but those seem to have a bit more yellow of wings and head and no white splotch on their wings. Canada Warbler and Magnolia Warbler were also eliminated due to the yellow line above the eyes. Due to the lack of black "necklace", if this is indeed a Townsend's Warbler, it seems to be an immature one.
