- Comments: "Park bird! Thanks to Jeff G. for finding and getting the word out. Crisply plumaged male hanging out in a large mixed warbler flock, making a small foraging circuit around the Nethermead Arches. I had evidently just missed it when I arrived, but after an hour or so of searching, it resurfaced just above the small stream at the north end of Nethermead. My view of the bird was close but brief, but as far as I could tell, the bird showed no signs of hybridization. I expect others will have better photos to confirm."
