Spotted
The Prairie Warbler is a sprightly warbler with bright yellow underparts, olive-green back, a yellow face with a prominent black eye-line and malar streak, and dark spots on its flanks.
Where to spot
Breeds in the eastern United States and southeastern Canada. Winters in Florida, the Caribbean, and along the eastern coast of Mexico and Central America.
How to spot
Look in scrubby areas, young deciduous forests, and clearings. Males often sing from exposed perches. Listen for its distinctive, rising series of buzzy "zeet" notes: "zeet-zeet-zeet-zeet-zee!"
When to spot
Best observed during the breeding season (late spring to summer) when males are singing. Also seen during spring (April-May) and fall (August-September) migration.

Despite its name, the Prairie Warbler prefers early successional habitats like regenerating clearings, old fields, and forest edges, rather than open grasslands or prairies.
