About  two weeks ago the NewYorkTimes had an article on the species, bird

For  one thing, we do not have wood-warblers here.  European bird books  do
not list this..  I wonder if it is a scam of the kind set up to  vilify
Acorn two years ago, when a couple claimed support for a  prostitution ring
they asked Acorn to fund, thereby exposing the liberal  organization as one
not to be trusted.  Anyone know anything about the  "elf wood-warbler"?

And they do exist. I've seen them, and I would describe them as beautifully
patterned in black and white.
