Female Yellowthroat

We spotted this Female Common Yellowthroat quickly moving in and out of the bushes while on a morning walk. While we most often see the males perched out in the open singing we very rarely have seen the female out in the open like this. She only stayed for a minute or two then flew off into a marshy area several hundred yards away.

  1. they used to hang out in a thicket outside my windows. I had never seen one before and called them the bandit finches because of the masks on the males. What an ordinary name for such an interesting bird.
