yellow-throated warbler in Boone!



C.birders,

Delighted to have a yellow-throated warbler visit this morning.  First 
thought is was a black-and-white in bad light, creeping along maple 
branches.  But  the light improved,and a non-black-and-white hawk-and-sally 
revealed a vibrant yellow.  Still wasn't able to get a good look at the 
supraloral before he left, so the subspecies is uncertain.  This was my 
first yellow-throated for the high country.

Its happening!

Humanity is exalted not because we are so far above other living creatures, 
but because knowing them well elevates the very concept of life.    Edward
