The Mourning Warbler that I reported seeing at Radnor Lake this morning 
possibly may have been a MacGillivray's instead.  After I got home I thought 
more 
about what I had seen briefly this morning.  The hood was gray and the white 
around the eye seemed to be too strong.  So I went back this afternoon from 
5:00-6:00 and saw it real well from close range.  It definitely has a full gray 
hood with a whitish throat.  The white around the eye looked like strong 
eye-arcs (top and bottom); not a weak, narrow incomplete eye-ring.  I got a 
little 
video of it a couple of times which shows the eye arcs and throat, and the 
undertail as it's flying away.  But the video is by no means great.  

I want to stress that this is only a POSSIBLE MacGillivray's.  Hopefully, it 
will still be here in the morning and more people can get a look.

It stays in the brushy area in front and the side of the ranger's house at 
the end of the dam road.  It especially likes the split rail fence line that 
goes down toward the bench at the point.  It calls quite a bit, and can be 
pished 
out.
