floraphile Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 18 Oct 2020 Feeding acrobatically (sometimes hanging upside down) on blooms of goldenrod--I assume getting insects? Not particularly shy or flighty. It did not have a distinct/real contrasty crown. I don't think the beak is hooked--I think that's a piece of something in photo 2?

Immatures and nonbreeding adults lack the gray on the head. https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Tennessee_Warbler/id 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
