HappyCamper Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Newbie here! I was hoping someone could help me ID this small pale yellow bird that has been visiting my bird feeder, this past month. Thanks so much! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyCamper Posted January 28, 2022 Author Share Posted January 28, 2022 So sorry, I think I posted this to the wrong forum - should be in North America. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bird Nuts Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Welcome to Whatbird! That is an Orange-crowned Warbler, one of a few warblers that regularly visit suet feeders. Next time remember to include a general location (e.g. state) to help us narrow down the species. I'll tag a mod so they can move your post. @Kevin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyCamper Posted January 28, 2022 Author Share Posted January 28, 2022 Thanks so much Kevin! Was hoping it was an Orange-crowned Warbler, but I had never seen one before, and thought it might be a Pine Warbler? Promise to do better in the future on details. Thanks so much to the mods for their patience with a newbie! ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pines are a different color - males are more yellow (as opposed to greenish) with white undertail coverts, mostly white undertail, and their cheeks are darker and contrast with the throat.
