Townsend's Warbler dines on a meal worm, 4PM 9 Feb 2007.
Video by Lou Cohen.
The bird arrived in our yard in Cambridge in early January during a January thaw. We fed it with mealworms until early April, at which time the bird ate voriciously for 2 days, sang for the only time we ever heard it, then disappeared.
