About
The common yellowthroat is a New World warbler. It is an abundant breeder in North America, ranging from southern Canada to central Mexico. In the northern parts of its range the birds are migratory, wintering in the southern parts of the breeding range, Central America and the West Indies. Southern forms are largely resident. Historically, it has also known as the "yellow bandit", Maryland yellow-throat, and yellow-breasted warbler.
Fun Fact
Common yellowthroats nest in low vegetation, laying 3–5 eggs in a cup-shaped nest.
