Black-throated Green Warbler

When looking at Black-throated Green Warbler photos, you’ll see a medium-sized warbler similar in size and shape to many others in the Setophaga genus. It is plump and seemingly large-headed, with a thick, straight bill and short tail. The brilliantly colored male often perches out in the open to sing, perhaps on a high twig of a spruce. The Black-throated Green Warbler call is actually made up of two song types, used in different situations: he sings zoo zee zoo zoo zee to proclaim and defend his nesting territory, and zee zee zee zoo zee in courtship or when communicating with his mate. Migrating birds will frequent any woody habitat, even coming down from the canopy to forage on fruiting shrubs. The Black-throated Green Warbler habitat in the winter is typically found in the canopies of tall mature forests in Middle America, but sometimes occurs in secondary growth as well.
