Olive-Crowned_Yellowthroat_-Geothlypis_Semiflava_(1_of_8) Saw her in the old fort using old tables as a perch. There will be two more, just to show you what followed. This is a manual focus 600mm with a 1.4 TC. The EXIF is not true.

    I could be mistaken but this doesn't look like a female yellowthroat to me. Puts me more in mind of a yellow warbler. Posted 8 years ago

    I've got more experience with warblers now, so I'm positive: that's a yellow warbler. You can see the faint streaks on the flanks and that elegant silhouette is pure Setophaga, not Geothlypis. Posted 6 years ago
