| Hooded Warbler and Yellow Warbler |
|
Jeff Lewis photographed this Hooded Warbler on 13 Sept 2007 and this Yellow Warbler on 14 Sept 2007 in his yard in Manteo, North Carolina. These photos provide a nice comparison of two species that might sometimes be confused. Both have a large dark eye on a plain yellow face. Only the Yellow Warbler shows yellow edging on remiges and rectrices; it's also shorter-tailed, shows a hint of streaking on the breast, and has less color contrast between underparts and upperparts. |
