Tennessee Warbler (Leiothlypis peregrina) (1) CONFIRMED
- Reported Nov 27, 2025 08:42 by Conor McMahon
- Santa Barbara Shores County Park, Santa Barbara, California
- Map: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=p&z=13&<q...>,-119.8967171&<ll...>,-119.8967171 - Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S286417073 - Media: 4 Photos
- Comments: "(34.424377,-119.897900). Feeding at blue gum eucalyptus flowers. Interestingly this bird doesn't seem to have much visible matting on the face, in contrast to the YRWA and RCKI also using the same tree. I think it has a slightly longer bill."
