Wilson's Warbler

Wilson's WarblerWilson's Warbler, Gearhart, Oregon, 6 August 2011 by Greg Gillson.

 

Here's a bit of color that I wanted to share with you. This bird was hiding in a stunted Sitka spruce near the edge of the beach dunes. It's already migration time and several of these birds were seen on the extreme outer coast, where they likely do not nest.
