Nashville Warbler Sinton Pond El Paso

[David Tønnessen]

I had a female (western ssp) Nashville Warbler in with the Yellow-rumped and Orange-crowned Warbler flock at Sinton Pond about an hour ago today 4/21. The bird looks and behaves similar to the Orange-crowned Warblers at first glance, but look for a grayer head and bold complete eye-ring with no eyestripe. There was only one warbler flock all seeming to stick together, and making rounds from the northwest side of the pond, down to the creek and around the east side (and perhaps back to the northwest side again). I did not detect the Lucy's Warbler in this flock today.

Good birding,
