Dear Marie,
Seen Sunday, August 24th, 12:27 pm in Maintenance Field, second tall tree on East side of field facing North. I think this is a blue wing warbler. This is the most complete image. It was doing the standard warbler behavior- flit, flit.
Sincerely,
Beth Bergman

PS It IS indeed a Blue-winged Warbler.
