Abstract

On the morning of 18 June 1960 I observed a Chestnut-sided Warbler (Dendroica pensylvanica) with adult plumage in a grove of willows adjoining North Teal Lake on the Columbia National Wildlife Refuge near Othello, Grant County, Washington. Later in the day, Paul Steel, who was then Refuge Manager, and I were able to collect this bird which is now Specimen No. 467246 in the U. S. National Museum. Dr. Richard C. Banks of the Bird and Mammal Laboratories, National Museum, checked pertinent ornithological publications for data on this species and found that there are no previously published records of this warbler in the state of Washington. The bird was not sexed.
