About These Birds

Black-crested Warbler

The Black-crested Warbler is a small warbler of Andean cloud forest undergrowth in Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, and Peru, with a distinctive black cap and crest contrasting with yellow underparts and olive upperparts. It inhabits dense forest undergrowth and thickets along stream edges and forest borders. It feeds on insects, foraging close to the ground in typical warbler fashion.

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.
