Hi again -

I have received a few replies, I think Ben has identified it.  A female 
Yellowthroat.  I have seen the males before, as they are pretty easy to 
pick out, but I guess I haven't gotten a positive ID on a female COYE 
before. Most of the male birds that I have seen didn't stick around very 
long, so I wasn't able to see if a female was nearby, or what she looked 
like.  Anyway, this is a great example of how Cowbirds leave all of the 
work of raising the young to other species, as this mom was being very 
diligent in her efforts to feed the chick. 

Good Birding -

Jeff Parks
