Should the Warbler Get a Makeover? November 12, 2009

At the end of August I wrote about getting a good bird book.

I took my own advice and when my National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of Eastern North America came I turned to the section on warblers. I hate to say it, but that cute little bird I invented for my logo looks very much like a Tennessee Warbler. They migrate through Louisa County, but don’t stay long.

There is another warbler that nests here during the summer called the Blue-winged Warbler. They are yellow with midnight blue wings. As you locals know, Wapello High School’s colors are blue and gold. I find myself wondering if I should tweak a few lines and recolor him.

Should I repaint the bird? Tell me what you think!
