On 1 June 1980 at 1115 I discovered a male Golden-winged Warbler (Vermivora chrysoptera) in my neighbor’s yard in Shoshone, Lincoln Co., Idaho. Its song first drew my attention—a familiar song after my many years of birding in Wisconsin where this warbler is a common spring migrant. I studied the warbler for about an hour as it foraged in deciduous trees. It continued to sing in bouts of 4-7 songs roughly every 15 minutes. Several times the warbler came within 2 m permitting unmistakable identification with the unaided eye. I also watched it through 15x binoculars and obtained the following description: Plumage: crown, bright yellow; eyeline extending through the eye, black; chin and throat, black; back grayish; wingbars, broad, deep yellow; underparts, grayish white.
