This morning about 9 am, several tiny birds were at my windows being
harassed by the Hummingbirds who have taken over the property. Not much
bigger than the hummingbirds. My first impression was a Red Start due to
light showing through the tail (underneath facing me) bands of pale Almost
yellow not orange. Not a Yellow Rumped Warbler, I do have those.
I don't believe I have ever seen these before.
I am assuming they were warblers. I think they may have been looking for
protein as they were very quickly flying up down along the window panes.
Might be one the shingles but I couldn't see that. Description, no photos.
Quite a white yellow in places, with a definite black throat and more black
on the face maybe not over the head.
Does this ring a bell with anyone?
