Occurrence Remarks The documentation form by Mark Proescholdt is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. | Elimination of similar species: In "Spring" this should not be mistaken for any other warbler. A ♂ Mourning Warbler lacks the vivid eye crescents. A Connecticut Warbler has a complete white eyering and no black smudge on the upper breast and the gray head is a lighter gray color. In "fall" the female and immature Mourning Warblers may show a thin, nearly complete eyering (which I have seen on Mournings in the fall), but this could not be mistaken for the vivid white eye crescents of this breeding-plumaged male MacGillivray's Warbler along with its very noticeable black smudge on its upper breast below its gray hood. | The original documentation form event lasted from approximately 11:15:00/11:15:05.
Occurrence Status present
Field Number 1995-25
Event Remarks Viewing Conditions: Cloudy, it was somewhat dark lighting, Bird was 20 feet away estimated, 8x30 Binocs I had very good looks at the warbler.
