Maybe someone can help me with this one. I've been watching a bird in my office parking lot for the last week. I can tell from the song, size, shape, and habits (it gets up at the very top of the tallest tree and sings, just like every other indigo bunting I've ever seen) that it's an indigo bunting, but it doesn't look blue to me, even through binoculars. It also seems to have a whitish, somewhat spotted chest. Could this be a juvenile? Also, I've been watching a large batch of warblers in the same spot. I'm assuming they are yellow warblers, because their faces are pure yellow with black eyes and no eye markings, but these birds don't have the usual reddish chest streaks. The only other bird with the same face is the prothonotory, which these most certainly are not (I have seen many of those and know them by color.) Do yellow warblers can lose their streaks during the summer and fall? ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
