Setophaga palmarum
Small songbird with brownish back, chestnut cap, yellow undertail with faint streaks on sides. This one is very pale.
This one was observed in a scrubby, open area at the Phinizy Swamp Nature Park near Augusta (Richmond County), GA.
Palm Warblers forage on the ground much more than other warblers, sometimes flying to catch insects. These birds mainly eat insects and berries. Their constant tail bobbing is an identifying characteristic.
