Calling My Birding Neighbours



Can anyone help me with identifying this wee yellow bird? The closest I could find in the book was a Thompson's Warbler...but the colouring was slightly different on the face. Thank you for any help you can give me.

Hello Precious! The wee bird in question looks like a
Townsend's Warbler. Great pic! Keep up the inspiring
photography. The 'G'ster ;-)

Hey, my bird book also says the same. It's got to be in the warbler family for sure! What a sweet bird.

Yeah...pretty sure about the warbler part. He's very striking...and very quick! It took me about four days to manage to get these shots through the window.

The markings for a Townshend's were different in the photo I looked up. Perhaps I need to check google image.
