Spotted
The Tropical Parula is a small, colorful warbler with a blue-gray back, yellowish-olive patch, bright yellow underparts, and distinct white wing bars. Males often have a dark mask and incomplete breast band.
Where to spot
Resident from southern Texas (USA) and northern Mexico south through Central and South America to northern Argentina.
How to spot
Look in open woodlands, forest edges, clearings, and well-wooded gardens. It often forages actively in the mid-story and canopy. Listen for its buzzy, often accelerating song, similar to the Northern Parula but typically ending more abruptly.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round within its extensive resident range. More vocal during the local breeding season.
