The answer is: Meadow Pipit. Carla's guess was close

(BC, yes most of these are birds from the UK but some are found in the US also. I knew if I posted birds from here...you'd all know what they are.)

Today's WAI?

This bird is widespread and very familiar throughout Europe. It is most common in western Europe.

This should be easy for all. (except me)

The male Prothonotary Warbler continues in mid-town Manhattan (New York City) at the front of the New York Public Library (main building) in trees, flower & shrub plantings, and on stone steps and even on chairs & tables set out for visitors in front of the building.
