We were having our picnic breakfast at Fort Hill the other morning when this little bird started hopping around on the split-rail fence. Phil got his camera out and clicked away, thinking it was just “another” sparrow. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
And then I pulled up my iBird Photo Sleuth on my iPhone and it said it was 99% a Palm Warbler. Wow!! We had never seen one before, so it was a first on our Life List!
When viewing the range map, it looks like the Palm Warbler was migrating from Canada and the northern states to southeastern USA, the West Indies and the Yucatán Peninsula. Very cool!
Have you ever seen a Palm Warbler?
What a great sighting of a really cool palm warbler! I have never seen one! Sure is a beautiful bird!
Thanks for sharing, Mel and Phil!
