Got wood-warbler questions? If so, I have answers for you. I'm Daniel Edelstein — biologist, birding guide, birding instructor (www.warblerwatch.com and danieledelstein@att.net) — who ponders: Are there any wonders in our world more fascinating than the elegant beauty of wood-warblers?

Here's the photo quiz answers from my previous post featuring wood-warbler photos:

Good job, everyone....it's cool to note Ryan Brady was kind to share his photos and now (drum roll) the answers (clockwise starting from the top left-most photo):

Black-throated Green

Ovenbird

Tennessee

Mourning (female)

Cape May

NICE to note and FLATTERED to mention: I'll be in WI 9/14 - 9/22/21 for birding, including attending the WI Society for Ornithology event (JaegerFest) near Superior, WI.....Should be excellent and wonderful, too, to see friends.

Now to a birding tour here that I'm leading in my homeground, the SF Bay Area...plus preparing for my upcoming "Fundamentals of Ornithology" class that I'm teaching 9/26 - 11/14/21 at Merritt College (Oakland, CA) (Merritt.edu). More info. on it:

Cheers to all...be safe....Daniel

Wilson's Warbler (Wilsonia pusilla chryseola)

MacGillivray's Warbler

Among songbird species returning to the Bay Area (CA) for the breeding season, MacGillivray's Warbler is an annual nester that is typically never common (ala the Yellow Warbler, Wilson's Warbler, and Orange-crowned Warbler -- all of which have a presence that is usually more obvious as breeders in the Bay Area. That is to say, McGillivray's is indeed present as a breeder, but only locally common in suitable habitat, such as within Mitchell Canyon in the Clayton/Walnut Creek-based Mt. Diablo State Park.)
