Jerry Barrack took the above pic on Sunday. I don't have further details.
Looks like a Prothonotary but could it be one of those tricky young Hooded Warblers? Your input invited.
Great shot Jerry, congratulations!
Way ta go, Gerry! Congratz!! Sure looks like a
PROW to me. As “Dr. Barrack” you should have checked its teeth for confirming ID! . . .. .COOx2
This is certainly a Prothonotary warbler (looks to be a female or 1st year bird?) and is an incredible record. This is the 2nd fall record I know of now for the CF (all of my personal records–about 8 or so–have been in spring)
Amazing find Jerry–congrats!
