Yellow-rumped Warbler (Setophaga coronata coronata) - 20230831-02

            One of the most common and widespread warblers; often the core member of mixed warbler flocks during migration, especially early in spring and late in fall. Two main populations: “Audubon’s” breeds mainly in the mountains of the western U.S. and into British Columbia; “Myrtle” breeds from the eastern U.S. across Canada to Alaska. All plumages show a bright yellow rump and yellow on the sides. Most “Audubon’s” have a yellow throat, but dull immature females can be off-white. “Myrtle” Warblers have a white throat that wraps around below the cheek. Both subspecies breed in coniferous or mixed forests, often near clearings or edges. In migration and winter, found in any woodland or open shrubby area, including coastal dunes, fields, parks, and residential areas. Often sallies out from a conspicuous perch to snatch insects. Also eats berries in the winter. Calls frequently: a flat “check” (Myrtle) or rising “chit” (Audubon’s).  (eBird)

Among the first to arrive and the last to leave, the Yellow-rumped warblers keep us busy during warbler season.  While the males are very obvious, females and juveniles can be confusingly cryptic, like this youngster here.  A few hints of yellow can be the only suggestion of warbler-hood.  This young one was enjoying the late summer sun  and providing brief views.
