The Black-throated Gray Warbler is a distinctive western warbler, marked by its gray back, white underparts, a prominent black throat and cap, and two white wing bars. It has a small yellow spot on its lores.
Where to spot
Breeds in western North America, primarily in the mountains of the southwestern United States and Mexico. Winters in Mexico and Central America.
How to spot
Look in dry, open coniferous or mixed oak-pine woodlands. It often forages actively in the mid-story and canopy. Listen for its buzzy, often rhythmic song, described as "zee-zee-zee-zoo-zee."
When to spot
Best observed on breeding grounds (late spring to summer). Also seen during spring (April-May) and fall (August-September) migration.
