"This morning, while scouting out my recently acquired
sub-area for the Oakland Christmas Bird Count, Pat
Bacchetti, Sue Cox, and I found a Palm Warbler.

This bird was seen on 5th street, off Embarcadero,
west of I-880 in Oakland.=A0 The bird was in a leafless
tree at the entrance to the last driveway on the
right, just before the road dead-ended.=A0 It then
hopped to the ground and nearby shrubs.=A0 Morning light
made it very easy to see the bright yellow undertail
coverts as the bird bobbed its back end.=A0 The crown
was faded chestnut and the overall plumage of the bird
was rather dull."
