Day 172: Chestnut-sided Warbler

The Chestnut-sided Warbler is another cute little warbler that breeds in parts of eastern North America. As its name suggests, it has distinct chestnut colored flanks. Chestnut-sided Warblers also have dark gray backs, white faces, black eyestripes, and green/yellow crowns.





We see many Chesnut-sided Warblers throughout Maryland this time of year. Their cheerful, high whistling songs are also unmistakable and help us identify them.
