As its name suggests, the Pine Warbler is commonly found in pines in the summer and it nests exclusively in pine trees! It is also found in mixed woodlands in the winter.
Its range is south-central Canada and the eastern U.S.A. I can be found locally northwards inland, but rarely. It can also be found in the northern West Indies.
The Audubon Society says its voice is a ''musical, but somewhat melancholy one-pitch trill like that of a soft, sweet Chipping Sparrow".
It is described as unstreaked olive above with yellow throat and breast, faint steaking below, white belly, inconspicuous eye-stripe, with two white wing bars. Females are similar but duller.
