Warbling in the Wetlands
by FeyGirl on March 15, 2013
A bird doesnt sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song. Lou Holtz
Which is why Im constantly running to Nature, and to these wonderful creatures. That reminder to JUST BE (or in my words, Simmer Down).
And our winters provide a more varied opportunity for observing
different happenstances of this simple state of being the migrating
birds make their residences in the area, even if it is temporary.
A Wee Warbler in the Wetlands
A few Palm Warblers
flit amid the trees; here, among a strand of young cypress. These tiny
bright gems of songbirds adorable little shocks of yellow in our swamp
and wetlands are easily missed if youre in a rush, or arent fully aware.
Sing it!
Palm Warblers are common winter residents in our marshy natural
areas, migrating in the late fall to the southeastern U.S. and the
Caribbean. The species is comprised of two distinct sub-species, the
Yellow Palm Warbler and the Western Palm Warbler. Those breeding in the
eastern range are yellow underneath, while those inhabiting the western
part of the range are duller in color, with whitish bellies. Palm
Warblers primarily breed in wetland habitats east of the Continental
Divide, across Canada and the northeastern United States. A distinctive
feature of Palm Warblers is tail wagging, or pumping. More than other
warblers, this bird forages on the ground for insects and berries.
