Spotted
The Black-and-white Warbler is a striking North American warbler, aptly named for its heavily streaked black and white plumage. It has a unique foraging behavior, creeping along tree bark like a nuthatch.
Where to spot
Breeds across most of eastern and central North America, extending into parts of Canada. Winters from Florida and Mexico south through Central America and northern South America.
How to spot
Look for it methodically climbing and foraging on tree trunks and large branches, often spiraling up and down. Listen for its thin, high-pitched "weesy-weesy-weesy" song.
When to spot
Best observed during spring (April-May) and fall (August-October) migration in various forest types. Also present on breeding grounds from late spring to summer.

This species is one of the earliest warblers to arrive on its breeding grounds in spring and one of the last to depart in fall, spending a longer period in its temperate breeding range compared to many other warblers.
