A female second year Townsend's Warbler (TOWA) was banded in my yard Feb 3rd. My back boundry abutts the Cole Nature Park in Lake Forest Park. I saw a pair of Townsend's in the fir trees in January, and I saw one TOWA last weekend in my birdbath. I'd say that these two might have been here all winter--it's hard to view when the only daylight hours are while I am at work, or the weekends.
