(AllAboutBirds) "White or light gray underneath, various shades of blue, black, and white above." (AllAboutBirds).

lycophidion, 11 days ago to nature Hooded Warbler (Setophaga citrina) in Central Park, NY's The Ramble woodland area at yesterday's World Migratory Bird Day #GlobalBigDay #nature #NaturePhotography #birds #Wildlife #naturecommunity #photography #birding #birdphotography #songbird #biodiversity "Hooded Warblers are small, well-proportioned birds with a straight, sharp bill. Compared to other warblers, they are fairly heavy-bodied and thick-necked. Adult males are olive-green above and bright yellow below with a black hood and throat, a yellow forehead, and yellow cheeks. Females and immatures are also olive-green above and yellow below, but they don't have a black hood, although some adult females show an outline of a hood. Note the large black eye and white outer tail feathers that it often flashes." (AllAboutBirds)

BelfastRoadster, 19 days ago to nature The first sighting of a #Greenfinch on the reserve at #WWTCastleEspie for many a long year. This species has been having a hard time recently. Could they be recolonising? 🤞🏻 #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #bird #birds #songbird #finch #naturereserve #CountyDown #NorthernIreland @RSPB
