13 cm (5 inches)
Small, active, insect-eating bird with thin, very pointed bill. Indistinct yellow supercilium. Indistinct broken eye ring. Grayish to olive head, bac, and wings. No wing bars. Yellow to dull yellow/olive underparts with blurry, indistinct streaks on breast. Yellow undertail coverts. Orange crown rarely shows; most visible when crown feathers are raised, and from behind.
Females and immatures are somewhat duller.
Variations
Considerable variation in plumage with western birds being somewhat yellower and eastern birds grayer.
Distribution
Alaska and almost universal in Canada (absent only in the southeast and far northeast); Western United States from Washington to western Montana south to California to western tip of Texas. In migration found almost anywhere in the United States but far more widespread in west.
Taxonomy
It was formerly included in Vermivora and Oreothlypis.
Subspecies
There are 4 subspecies[1]:
- L. c. celata:
- L. c. orestera:
- L. c. lutescens
- South-eastern Alaska to British Columbia and southern California; winters to Guatemala
- L. sordida:
- Coastal southern California and islands off south-western California and Baja California
Habitat
Marshes, suburban gardens, semi-wooded areas, oak savannah, riparian, open grass beside rivers and ponds.
Behaviour
Diet
Their diet consists mostly of insects and spiders during the summer months, switching to berries and fruit in the winter. Very active feeders in low shrubs, sometimes hovering.
Breeding
The female chooses the nest site, which is usually on the ground under dense vegetation, but may be in a shrub, low tree, fern, or vine. The nest is an open cup formed from grasses, shredded bark and moss, lined with fine grass and hair. The clutch consists of 4 to 5 eggs which are incubated for 11 to 13 days. Both parents feed the young.
Vocalisations
Song a variable trill, usually dropping in pitch and volume towards end. Usual call a hard, sharp, "tick."
