Tweeters,

This morning I saw a real oddity at Carkeek Park in Seattle: An adult
Wilson's Warbler feeding a fledgling Black-throated Gray Warbler. At first
I thought my eyes must be making a mistake, but I watched 7 feeding events,
so it was the real deal. The youngster did not appear to be a hybrid.

I can think of a few ways this might have come about, but they all sound
pretty far-fetched. I've never seen anything like this before. Has anyone
out there in Tweeterdom seen something like this, or heard about an
instance?

In case anyone is interested in looking for it, it was right by the Honey
Bucket in the middle of Carkeek Park, just below the water treatment
facility.
