Surprised this individual while hiking on a very quiet trail. She first charged me, then took refuge in thick foliage where she continued a series of "defense" calls until a Steller's Jay interrupted her. Did not see the chicks.

Prothonotary Warbler Protonotaria citrea

Observer

Description

Likely to be Utah's 10th accepted record of the Prothonotary Warbler.

The structure this individual is perched on is a hollow iron post used to (i think) support a volleyball net--there are two such posts, each attached to an automobile tire--in the area. The bird was poking his head in and out of the post. According to http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/prothonotary_warbler/lifehistory

"When courting, the male flies close to the female and both birds chip softly. The male shows off possible nest cavities, entering and exiting them. Once a pair forms, the male guards the female while she is building the nest and laying eggs."

The bird also flew off to visit a Yellow Warbler nest located about 20 yards away a few times. I posted a sighting of this nest as well.
