My post of 1/12 in which I reported a Hermit/Townsends hybrid warbler at Hidden Villa was, after careful consideration of detailed comments from Mike Rogers, too hasty. In particular, there were no diagnostic features of this bird which unambiguously indicated a Townsend's influence. Although the bird was not an exact match for the immature female Hermit Warbler as depicted in my NGS and Sibley guides, it was within the range of variation for the age, gender & species. It was still fun to see the bird! --Garth Harwood _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
