Is this a female Common Yellowthroat that visited our backyard today? I was photographing the Palm Warblers that are so cute, hopping around and doing their little “chip” calls, and then I noticed this guy. He has yellow patches like the Palm Warblers, but he’s missing the black stripe near his eye. The closest picture in my book is the female Common Yellowthroat. We’ve seen the male at Oakland Nature Preserve…it’d be fun to have them in our backyard too!
