Field Notes

Description:

A drab bird of riparian woodlands, the Warbling Vireo is more easily heard than seen. It has no distinctive field marks, but its rapid warbling song with a accented, high-pitched last note is relatively easy to recognize.

Habitat:

Look for Warbling Vireos in mixed-deciduous woodlands, especially along streams, ponds, marshes, and lakes. They are less often found in upland areas away from water. Often associated with clearings and forest edges, the Warbling Vireo sings high in the canopy. Other habitats include urban parks and gardens, orchards, farm fencerows, campgrounds, deciduous patches in pine forests, mixed hardwood forests, and, rarely, pure coniferous forests.
