- Comments: "Flagged as rare (a little north of its core range), and getting a little late, though I had one on the peninsula on May 23 a couple of years ago. Singing repeatedly on all sides of Lookout Hill, though heard most often (and, eventually, seen) just N of Butterfly Meadow, downhill and across the paved path. Recorded the song several times and only saw it once, but repeated, rising song distinctive (if a little like some Mourning Warbler variations—they're in the same genus), and a brief look showed its distinctive face pattern of yellow spectacles and black muttonchops."
