Hmmm, having just read this news I came upon the following description of what
I presume is a bird species; namely, a black-throated gray warbler.
I have no idea what this bird is and seek help to ascertain its identification.
Is it possibly a black-throated, gray Warbler, a black-throated Gray Warbler, a
Black-throated Gray Warbler, or is it a songbird, the Black-throated Gray
warbler?
Wish people would leave useful grammatical rules alone :-)
