The golden-winged warbler
is a highly sought rarity at Magee Marsh. The bird has a yellow
forehead and wing patch, and a black or gray face mask; mature males
also have a black throat (not shown in the images below). The
yellow-rumped warbler,
by contrast, has no black throat patch, and has
yellow in its armpit rather than on the actual wings. The best
chance of
seeing a golden-winged warbler at Magee is during the first three weeks
of May, particularly the second week.
