Rich Stanton Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Several photos of the same or possibly two birds that for some reason have me quite stumped. None of the undertail coverts match the plates in Peterson, for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Stanton Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 As the original poster, I don't know if I get to argue, but I am leaning Bay-breasted on these birds, partly on probability, and partly on some admittedly subjective features like nape and under-tail covert colors. Does anyone else have thoughts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quiscalus quiscula Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Just now, Quiscalus quiscula said: Agreed, Pine Warblers. Honestly there's not a lot of concrete features that point to Pine Warblers, more like no features that point to other warblers, which is typical of Pine Warblers. It's also kind of an impression and structure thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bird Nuts Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Definitely Pines. Immatures, I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
