An abundant breeder of the northeastern coniferous forests, the Black-throated Green Warbler is easy to recognize by sight and sound. Its dark black bib and bright yellow face are unique amongst Eastern birds, and its persistent song of "zoo-zee, zoo-zoo-zee" is easy to remember.
We saw this guy in Rocky Branch State Park near Tuscaloosa Alabama. It may have been because of early migration since these specific birds aren't seen in Alabama unless its during the fall or spring migration. So we were pretty luck to see him!
The male Black-throated Green Warbler sings persistently during the breeding season. One individual was observed singing 466 songs in one hour.
