Spotted
The Magnolia Warbler is a stunning warbler with a striking pattern: a gray crown, black mask, black necklace of streaks across its bright yellow breast, and a prominent white wing patch and tail spots.
Where to spot
Breeds across the boreal forests of Canada and the northeastern United States. Winters in Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.
How to spot
Look for it in coniferous or mixed forests, particularly spruce and fir on breeding grounds. During migration, often found in deciduous trees. Watch for its active foraging; listen for its clear, whistled song, often described as "weeta-weeta-weet-yo!"
When to spot
Best observed during spring (May) and fall (August-September) migration, when they are found in various wooded habitats. Present on breeding grounds in summer.

Its common name comes from the fact that the first specimen observed by ornithologist Alexander Wilson was collected from a Magnolia tree in Mississippi during migration, not due to any specific association with magnolias.
