Warbling Vireo

Warbling Vireos are Common from Late April-End of August.

Habitat

The Warbling Vireo's typical habitat is open deciduous or shrubby mixed woodlands, especially where large trees are present. Warbling Vireos are often found in willow or cottonwood stands along rivers. They are not found in large, unbroken tracts of woods, but prefer smaller patches and edges, including logged areas, rural woodlots, and parks. They do not breed in conifer stands, but can be found in small patches of hardwood trees or shrubs within conifer forests. During migration they can be seen in a variety of lowland habitats, especially in red-osier dogwood.

Behavior

Warbling Vireos forage mostly high in the treetops, where they move along twigs and branches, looking for food among the leaves.
