Tom Williams reported a Mourning Warbler in his backyard in Douglas County this afternoon. Based on the photos, it appears to me to be a 1st winter Connecticut Warbler. Does anyone know Tom and would they be able to find out if he is open to visitors? Checklist below.

It is a Connecticut!  As one of the local eBird reviewers, I've sent an email about access and whether it's continuing (the comments suggested maybe not, but not sure).  That'd be a SWEET green big year bird too....(while he stretches and plots for a possible ride in the morning, haha!).

Cheers,

The bird was there for 10 min and moved out with a loose flock of chickadees. It wasn't seen again. Sweetwater park is nearby and worth a check. Tom won’t be home tomorrow morning so looking at the residence is not an option. Seems like working the park and local bike path is a good option to try for this big skulker!

What a 10 min wonder for a yard bird! 

Good luck if you scour the area.
