"The name "warbler" means "singing with trills, runs and quavers" and was originally applied to European warbler species, unrelated to the North American wood warblers. Despite their namesake, wood warblers do not actually "warble." Rather, many species of this family may have several distinctive and cheerful songs. Almost entirely insectivorous, wood warblers use their slender, straight and pointed bills to capture prey. Members of the genus Dendroica (meaning "tree-dweller") include the Townsend's, Yellow-rumped and Yellow Warblers. A large group, this genus is primarily composed of arboreal warblers with wing bars and tail spots."

That pretty yellow face peeks out through the branches, shadows, and mist.
