Audubon's Warbler

Setophaga auduboni

Audubon's Warbler is a small songbird found in the coniferous forests of western North America. This species is known for its striking yellow patches on the head and chest, contrasting with a slate-gray back and wings. The males have a black throat and crown, while the females have a lighter, olive-green coloring. Audubon's Warblers are skilled foragers, feeding on insects and spiders, and are often observed flitting through the branches in search of food. They build cup-shaped nests in conifer trees and are known for their sweet, high-pitched song. While not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and climate change pose potential risks to their populations.
