Yellow-rumped warblers are a treat to spot!

These resilient little birds, with their striking yellow patches and streaked backs, thrive across North America. Known for their adaptability, they can switch from insects to berries in winter, making them one of the few warblers that don’t migrate south. Listen for their cheerful 'chip' calls in forests and backyards alike!
