Morley Field Oriole confusion, Fort Rosecrans miscellaneous.
By – 7:57 am
An Orchard oriole was discovered by Nicole D on Saturday somewhere in the disc golf area in northern Balboa Park, but then at least yesterday multiple people reported and photographed what they believed to be Orchard Oriole near the swimming pool at Morley Field nearby, where the Tennessee Warbler is and also a couple Bullocks. But the bird near the swimming pool in some of the photographs certainly looks much better as a juvenile Hooded oriole, so anyone who eBirded the bird yesterday as an Orchard should reconsider and look at their photos carefully.This morning at Fort Rosecrans Cemetery, the Chestnut sided warbler continues and there are definitely three Tropical kingbirds, all seen simultaneously between the southeast corner and the main entrance area.Paul Lehman, San DiegoSent from the all new AOL app for Android
