Bay-breasted Warbler (Setophaga castanea), Lonely Dell Ranch, Glen Canyon NRA, Coconino County

This Bay-breasted Warbler was found and photographed by Roy Morris on 09 November 2017

One of the rarer of the eastern warblers in Arizona, there are only 20 previous state records. 

Bay-breasted can be similar to Pine and Blackpoll Warblers, however note greenish side of neck, faint stripes on back, no stripes on breast, and especially the bay coloration to the sides.
