WARBLERS

CHASING WARBLERS

In the United States and Canada, there are over 50 species of regular occurring members of the Wood-Warblers family, Parulidae. Many are brightly colored and searching for them and seeing them is both challenging and memorable. They’re small, active and most occupy the highest parts of trees or the densest parts of the understory. Their variety of colors, behaviors, and habitats make them favorites for many birdwatchers. Warblers are also some of the most challenging birds to photograph! Unlike most programs about birds, this is not about identification. Join us as we discover things we never learn from bird field guides!
