Tennessee Warbler (Oreothlypis peregrina), Lee's Ferry , Coconino County

This Tennessee Warbler was photographed by Roy Morris on 15 May 2020

Tennessee Warbler was reported frequently in the state during the 1970's and 1980's but there was a significant decline in reports during the 1990's and early 2000's. However, it has become increasingly regular again during the last few years with multiple reports each year. More regular as a fall migrant than a spring one.

Small warbler, short-tailed & long winged compared to Orange-crowned Warbler. Shows a blackish eye-line, distinct, pale, supercilium (most prominent forward of eye), gray crown, and whiteish underparts.
