songbilliam Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I have the book "The Warbler Guide" in front of me. From the photos I'm seeing, it certainly seems like this could be the underside of a Townshend's, especially from the belly up to the tail. Since there is little black on the throat it would have to be a female or first-year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Spencer Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Off-topic: What is holding the first bird in the air? It doesn't appear to be gripping anything with its feet, and I don't know of any warbler species with a prehensile tail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is just dropping from one place to another. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
