This Spring W9 and I saw a boatload of Common Yellowthroats at South Coast Botanic Garden. Maybe it was due to all the rainfall we had? These attractive birds were zipping around all over the place. This one had claimed a Corkscrew Willow tree. The branches droop and sway with the breeze like dancers.
Here is a link to an interesting ebird map. COYO migration. Many of these colorful warblers will spend the Summer up North.

Common Yellowthroat is one of the most widespread warblers in the country, and unlike most warblers, is a denizen of marshes, grasslands, and wet meadows.
