Canada Warbler
Wilsonia canadensis
I suppose I have three reasons for this delightful little warbler being my favourite.
1. I too am Canadian.
2. Its black necklace (on the male) is so easy to recognize.
3. Its song begins with a short, sharp chip note and continues as a rich and highly variable warble.
My favourite warbler is quite prevalent in south-eastern Canada, where I live, and is easily seen foraging in undergrowth or low branches. It can also be seen fly-catching. It is now late March here in southern Ontario, and I can hardly wait for this charming bird to make its spring arrival.
Please comment if you wish.
