Spotted
Townsend's Warbler is a striking western warbler. Males have a bright yellow face with a bold black mask and ear patch, a black throat, and black streaks on its yellow flanks. Its back is olive-green.
Where to spot
Breeds in coniferous forests of northwestern North America, from Alaska south to northern California and the Rocky Mountains. Winters along the Pacific coast, Mexico, and Central America.
How to spot
Look in coniferous forests, often high in the canopy. During migration, can be found in a variety of trees. Listen for its buzzy, thin song, often described as "weezy-weezy-weezy-weezy-twee."
When to spot
Best observed during spring (May) and fall (August-October) migration, when they pass through various habitats. Present on breeding grounds in summer.

This species forms mixed flocks with Hermit Warblers during migration and winter, and the two species are known to hybridize in areas where their breeding ranges overlap, primarily in the Pacific Northwest.
