With the bluish upperparts and necklace, I'd say a very young Northern Parula.
At 2nd glance, am inclined to agree.
Fugl, it's always best to stick with your first impression!
It's a young Common Yellowthroat, not a Parula.
Hezekiah 6:6
Not always but I agree it often is. But how about giving us chapter & verse on this one?
Hezekiah 6:6
???
For us less well versed in the Old Testament, please expand.
Hezekiah 6:6
I still don't see clearly why our bird's not a Northern Parula.
More apposite here might be 1 Corinthians 13:12. But I still don't see clearly why our bird's not a Northern Parula.
[There's no book of Hezekiah in the bible but E for effort anyway ]]
EDIT: cross-posted with your last, Falcon.
Well, OK, I see things a little less darkly now. I still wonder, however, how well-developed the eye arcs would be on a very young Northern Parula? Dto for bill characteristics.
... you could maybe convince me that it's a young Mourning Warbler (a young male with an especially yellow throat and a lack of eye crescents), but there is zero chance that it's a Northern Parula.
That would be a pretty early southbound migrant.
