Breeds across most of North America, from Canada to Mexico. Winters in Mexico and Central America. It prefers open deciduous woodlands, riparian areas, and suburban parks.
How to spot

When to spot
Breeding season: spring and summer (May-July). Migration: spring (April-May) and fall (August-September). Winter: October-April. Most vocal during breeding season.

Its common name perfectly describes its vocal abilities; its long, continuous, and complex warbling song is a defining characteristic and a delight to hear.
