Information about the Common Yellowthroat:

The Common Yellowthroat is a member of the Parulidae family, which are New World Warblers. It is a small skulking warbler native to much of North America from the Yukon to Newfoundland, and from southern Florida to southern Mexico. While it's overall numbers are in decline, it is still a very common bird (although it is more frequently heard rather than seen, with it's distinctive "wich-i-ty, wich-i-ty, wich-i-ty" song. The Common Yellowthroat is found in many different habitats, such as forests with damp brushy area, grassy areas along country roads or in agricultural lands, marshy areas with willows near streams, swamps, and lakes. During the breeding season, the male will perform a special flight song, rising high into the air while singing. Researchers have noted that the males with the larger masks tend to be more successful in attracting a mate.
