Description
"Palm Warbler In Spring" by Debbie Oppermann. My first sighting of the Palm Warbler, a small songbird in rust and yellow, was a thrill. I caught this one looking pensive while perched on a new leaf tree branch, in the early morning light, at the swamp at the arboretum in Guelph Ontario Canada. It mostly forages on the ground much more than other warblers, sometimes flying to catch insects. These birds mainly eat insects and berries. Their constant tail bobbing is an identifying characteristic. Palm warblers are one of 3 Setophaga species that incessantly bob their tails.
