Spotted
The Palm Warbler is a unique warbler with an overall dull plumage but a constant tail-wagging behavior. It has a distinctive chestnut cap in breeding plumage, yellowish underparts, and olive-brown upperparts.
Where to spot
Breeds in the boreal bogs and coniferous forests of Canada and the northern United States. Winters along the southern U.S. coast, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.
How to spot
Look for its distinctive tail-wagging behavior on the ground or low vegetation. Listen for its buzzy, insect-like trill that is rather weak and often rises slightly in pitch.
When to spot
Best observed during spring (April-May) and fall (September-October) migration, when it can be found in open areas, fields, and wetlands.

Unlike most warblers, the Palm Warbler frequently forages on the ground, often in open, boggy areas, continuously bobbing its tail up and down, a behavior that helps distinguish it from other warblers.
