About These Birds
Belding's Yellowthroat
Belding's Yellowthroat is a vulnerable warbler endemic to a few freshwater marshes in southern Baja California, Mexico. Males have a bright yellow throat and breast, black mask, and olive-green upperparts. Its highly restricted range and dependence on marsh habitats make it susceptible to water diversion, drought, and habitat loss.
American Yellow Warbler
A vibrant songbird with bright yellow plumage, the American Yellow Warbler weighs just under 10 grams. It frequents shrubby edges, wetlands, and gardens across North America. Males display rusty streaks on the breast during breeding season.
