I am trying to attract insect eaters too. I started growing mountain mint (not a mint but a native) and New Jersey tea. Next year hope to add sweet cicily. These plants are recommended in making an insectivary (attracts a lot of insects). THe plants were recommended for attracting beneficial insects but they should also attract hoards of bugs in general and hopefully bring in the warblers.

Actually, I just listened to an audio of a prairie warbler, and it might be that one.

It looks like a Lincolns Sparrow to me, I had one visit me last year. Cute bird. Donna

Ah geez, you're right. It happens that I took pictures of an adult song sparrow and an adult (female) house finch this afternoon, also, and I managed to confuse myself. I've only seen a song sparrow go to the feeder once; most of the time it's on the ground under the feeder. I guess I just wanted it to be a song sparrow. It was the eye that misled me more than anything else. I expected it to be more pronounced in a house finch. But I just have looked more closely at the shape of the beak. I guess there's no way to fix a topic title here, is there. Thanks, Dave
