I’ve added some mystery warblers after Bernie put his photos on iNaturalist and they were identified. Also, the “hummingbird” reported originally turned out to be a very fuzzy shot of a distant Kingfisher! We both thought the beak looked unnaturally short because the bird’s head was turned. That’s proof of something Pat Phillips said on yesterday’s GMAS walk: One big difference between beginning birders and seasoned birders is that the more seasoned ones have had time to make lots of mistakes!
