[mou] Yellowstone Bird ID

[Larry Sirvio]

I've tried posting this on Teton-Birdlist but that list has almost no
acitivity....so
offsubjuct or not...
Saw a bird in Yellowstone Park that had blue-gray back and wings, gray head,
striking yellow throat-patch, belly was white or off white. Size was robin
size - looked like a warbler to me. It was in smaller lodgepole pine (from
1988 burn) and was actively feeding close to the ground. I did get a good
look for a few seconds with binoculars. It appeared to be a northern parula
(which I have not seen previously). But... this bird is not in Wyoming
according to Sibley's maps.
Does anyone have any other ideas? I asked some park rangers and they had no
ideas.

Thanks
