smittyone@cox.net Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) Seen late this afternoon at Saint Mary's Wildlife Management Area, south of Council Bluffs, IA. This one was seen in the exact same location as the Common Yellow Throat I posted a couple of minutes ago. Shot just a few minutes later. Would this one be a male Common Yellow Throat then?

Connor Cochrane Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) Immature Male Yellowthroat since the mask is not yet solid black Edit: Apparently AHY males can have white flaking in the mask, so it could be that.

The Bird Nuts Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Yes, male Common Yellowthroat (one word). Remember that all vireos have blue feet and hooked bills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that much, and adults are much, much brighter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
