My bird had a yellow throat and a light greyish belly and grey back; but =
I didn=92t see any wing bars.  So maybe common yellowthroat?  Oh, =
phooey.  I thought I saw a rarity. The black patch didn=92t look as big =
as in the Sibley drawing.
Thanks for the compliment though.  Flora are more my =93thing=94.  (They =
stay still.)

Warbler?

  There was NO WIND!
