COMMON YELLOWTHROAT
GEOTHLYPIS TRICHAS — COMMON YELLOWTHROAT

Here’s a little boy who loves a good marsh. He’s only five inches long but has a great loud rhythmic song: wichity wichity wich, that he uses to call his little warbler wives to order. They will often make their nests just three feet above ground in small shrubbery. He generally loves to eat insects, caterpillars, and spiders, but here he seems to be fascinated by some popcorn left on a stump.
