Maplewood Nature Center: brilliant male Prothonotary Warbler seen at 12:15 PM today. Enter at Nature Center?s main entry [off Century Ave & 7th], go through iron gate, proceed directly to the largest lake/pond, go right on path to first & smaller viewing platform on the lake/pond, less than 100 yards. Suggest not actually getting on the platform. The bird perched several times on the tree almost overhanging the platform and a couple times in the cattails immediately in front of the platform. Sometimes he hid in the bushy undergrowth of the trees on the other side of the platform. Note: there is a Yellow Warbler doing much the same thing in its bright but orangier yellow.
