About These Birds
Black-polled Yellowthroat
The Black-polled Yellowthroat is a vulnerable, medium-sized warbler; males have a distinctive solid black cap (poll), olive-green upperparts, and bright yellow underparts with an olive-washed breast band. It has a highly restricted range in the highlands of central Mexico, inhabiting tall reed beds, cattail marshes, and wet grassy meadows. It feeds on small insects and invertebrates in dense emergent vegetation.
American Redstart
The American Redstart is an active wood warbler weighing about 8 g with a 12.4 cm wingspan, with males showing bold black-and-orange plumage. It fans its tail and droops its wings to flush insects from foliage, a distinctive foraging behavior observed across its North American breeding range.
