Prothonotary Warblers raise a baby

EXTRA

We hosted a pair of prothonotary warblers this summer. They nested so close to a spot we walked every day, that they plumb evaded us. We did not spot the nest until the one hatchling (three eggs never hatched) was nearly ready to fledge. Here are Mom, Dad, and Baby going through some of their frequent feedings. The video is from June 13-14, 2020. I still prefer their old fashioned name: golden swamp warbler.
