Yellow-Rumped Warbler

One of the most adaptable warblers in North America, it forages actively through foliage for insects in summer and switches to eating waxy berries such as bayberry and wax myrtle in winter, allowing it to winter further north than most warblers. Look for its namesake bright yellow rump patch, most visible in flight or as it flicks its tail while perched. Migration in spring and fall brings large numbers through mixed woodland and edges, often in loose foraging flocks with other small songbirds.
