Remsen, J.V. 1977 Prairie Warbler Dendroica discolor Sept.3 Monterey area, Monterey Co., Calif.: 1 - Washington Park, Pacific Grove where it was found by others yesterday. We located the bird with a mixed species feeding flock of warblers, vireos, and parids. The Prairie foraged slowly and deliberately in live oak foliage within 20' of the ground. The call note was a soft 'seep' like Townsend's. Upperparts were a dull greenish; wings with 2 obscure pale wingbars; underparts (not entire throat) mostly yellow but chin and undertail coverts white; eyebrow and sub-ocular line yellow; line between throat and subocular yellow grey-black; dark streaks and spots along sides and flanks; wagged tail; smaller (slightly) than Townsend's Warbler. This bird looked intermediate between the illustrations (in Robbins et al Birds of North America) of imm ♀ and ♀ adult on p. 269: the throat wasn't as extensively white as the imm.♀ and the face and flank markings were more distinct, but not as distinct as shown for the ad. ♀. Sept.5 Point Reyes, Marin Co., Calif.: 1 imm.♀ at Drane's Beach in willows and shrubs and on hillsides between the cypresses and the pond where it had first been seen Sept.2. A small warbler (smaller than accompanying Orange-crowned) with white tail spots; wagging tail; obscure wingbars; greenish back and head tised slightly rusty on back; pale superciliary and subocular stripe; whitish-yellow throat; yellow underparts with dusky, broad streaks and flanks.
