Charlie Spencer Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Phinizy Swamp, Augusta, GA. 25 April 2020. These grasses overhang a wide creek in a marsh. The bird landed long enough for me to point the camera but not to focus. Anybody with cabin fever is welcome to speculate. Obviously there aren't any other photos or I wouldn't be reduced to posting this one. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexHenry Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Common Yellowthroat seems like a good bet based on habitat, color, shape. Looks like a pink leg in there too. I think we can say it’s a Geothlypis, at least. Could even be a dull female Mourning Warbler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could even be a dull female Mourning Warbler Man, that would make those of us who bird Phinizy crazy excited. I also think Yellowthroat is reasonable. I wouldn't bet money on it, but it's a good guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexHenry Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) Yeah Mourning Warblers can pretty much be ruled out by location and date I suppose Edited April 27, 2020 by AlexHenry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Spencer Posted April 27, 2020 Author Share Posted April 27, 2020 I have other Common Yellowthroats so there isn't a lifer on the line here. I'll stick with 'Warbler sp.' Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
