Description
Many warblers migrate from South America to Canada each year, but Yellow-throated Warblers are almost homebodies by comparison. They nest farther south than most warblers, winter farther north, and are even year-round residents in parts of the southern U.S.
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Yellow-throated Warblers disappeared from the northern part of their range, but since 1940 they have been expanding northward. Isolated breeding populations have been found as far north as New York, Michigan, and southeastern Ontario, Canada.
The oldest recorded Yellow-throated Warbler was at least 5 years and 1 month old.
