Canada Warbler (Cardellina canadensis), Private Yard in Hidden Valley, Pinal County

This Canada Warbler was discovered and photographed by Nancy Lange on 09 June 2012 in her backyard.

One of the rarest "eastern" warblers in Arizona.  There are nine previous accepted records, but only two of those from spring. 

With a good view, a Canada Warbler is essentially unmistakable.  Bold white eyering, yellow supraloral, and (most distinctively) short dark streaks form a "necklace" pattern across the upper breast.
