74:362001-08-24Carver ParkCarver(record #2001-47, vote 2-5). Although this warbler may have been correctly identified, the description is not complete enough to preclude other species. The observer did not address the possibility of this being an immature female Yellow Warbler, which can appear very similar to an Orange-crowned and would be much more likely in August. Also, the described call note (“stick!”) could be interpreted to fit Yellow Warbler better than Orange-crowned. Reading the documentation another way shows that Palm Warbler would also fit the description. Not Accepted
