I am a member of Facebook - but do you have a group for Utahbirds - I couldn't find one. I would be happy to connect this way, I post pictures of my birding on there, but don't know how you connect unless you do it individually.

> Hi all,
> A male MAGNOLIA WARBLER (photos obtained) was at the housing area at Fish
> Springs NWR (Juab County) this morning...and it even sang softly a few
> times.  Awesome!  A male INDIGO BUNTING (singing also), a WHITE-WINGED DOVE
> (present yesterday, too), three MOUNTAIN BLUEBIRDS (very odd given the time
> of year) and two GREAT-TAILED GRACKLES were additional highlights this
> morning.
> 
> Also, a second year male AMERICAN REDSTART was singing at Rabbit Springs
> (Box Elder County - near Lucin) yesterday.
> 
> And finally...
> 
> My dad and I were in a rush to get home this morning, but we stopped in
> Callao (well just in front of the couple properties on the far west end of
> town - with the largest trees) and listened briefly.  After a minute or two,
> a sweet sounding warbler type song came from the undergrowth that borders
> the west property (it's on the north side of the road).  The song was quite
> variable within the song (in terms of pitch), but was extremely
> musical...lasting about two seconds each time.  The bird lurked in the
> undergrowth for several minutes singing every minute or so...I hoped it
> would pop into view on it's own, but it did not.  Eventually, I decided that
> we just needed to get out of the car and find the bird at which point the
> bird stopped singing and could not be located in the dense undergrowth...but
> there are multiple hedgerows on the property.  I commented to my dad that
> right before the end of the song, as well as the last note reminded me of a
> Common Yellowthroat song (similar pitch as part of their 'whit-chiti')...not
> the whole song overall, but mixed in at the end of the song.  I'm so bad
> when it comes to music, that I'm not sure I can describe too much else about
> the song especially since it only sang three times (admittedly only 20 ft
> away).  And while it was singing, I was going through about every warbler
> and their songs in my brain trying to figure out what it could be.  From
> what I could remember from NY, I thought Hooded Warbler (my original guess),
> Kentucky (in retrospect not so much when it comes to their song) and Canada
> Warbler have songs and/or habits that roughly fit this bird, but we had no
> CD's with us to check immediately.  So I just googled their songs when I got
> home, and the bird singing was definitely NOT a Kentucky Warbler or a Hooded
> Warbler (what I originally guessed it was based off of likelihood).
>  However, I'll be honest in that the bird singing had a song that sounded
> very similar to a CANADA WARBLER.  Wow, I wish we had spent more time
> finding this bird or that I had just put my camera on video mode to see if I
> could have recorded the song...I guess I just thought we'd be able to pish
> it out or it would sing more or pop out into view...OOPS!
> 
> Here's the song I found online that seems to fit reasonably well...at least
> well in retrospect...whatever that means.

> I would be willing to chase it (I am car-less though) in the morning (to
> hopefully confirm it) if anyone would be willing to make sure we leave
> Callao by 8:30-9AM so that I can get back to SLC to catch a flight
> midday...which means a departure time of around 3AM would be logical (or
> completely insane depending on your view).
