flightman Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I took this photo 4 years ago this month in Oceanside NY. I think I misidentified it. Is it a Palm Warbler. I note the white tail spots and what looks like yellow undertail coverts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also struggling with some of the local sandpipers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
