I had heard that a couple people could not find the Connecticut Warbler earlier in the morning today up to around noon. It had been raining earlier today so I thought I would go back today from 5:15pm to 6:45pm because sometimes when it rains it takes awhile before the birds to come out again. I walked up to where I had seen the male Connecticut Warbler yesterday, pished one short time and a large much more duller looking yellow colored warbler popped up from the ground into a small sapling. I noticed it had a dull brownish but very definite hood that came down pretty far. I initially thought it was the female version of the male Connecticut Warbler that was seen yesterday. I did not look at the eye (how embarrassing) but had a pointy bill. It immediately flew to a slender tree on the opposite side from me near the large multi-bush where I had seen the other bird yesterday south of the bathhouse as you go into the woods (not asphalt). I couldn't get another look at it and I never saw it again. I took one picture when it was on the otherside of the bushy/tree and didn't realize til I got home that you can see the eye ring and part of the brownish hood but it is mostly blocked by tree branches in the front. I later looked at Sibley's and it looked like a 1ST WINTER CONNECTICUT WARBLER. Perhasps this is the bird that Mark Anderson saw last Friday near the entrance to the field north of the library. I saw a lot less birds there today as I only had eight warbler species, mostly Yellow-rumped Warblers and American Redstarts. Still saw the Ovenbird, Black-and-White, two Wood Thrush and few Swainson's Thrush an adult Black-crowned Night-Heron and four Empid Flycatchers and one looked like a Yellow-bellied Flycatcher.
