Day 286: Canada Warbler

Sorry for not writing much recently, it's been a busy week! This weekend, we celebrate Jared's birthday, so it won't be slowing down anytime soon.

Today's bird, the Canada Warbler, is one of many warblers that migrates through Maryland this time of year. We saw this one at our favorite nearby park (where we've seen a lot of our birds recently), but it was too dark to get a really good photo.

Adult males, such as this bird, have a distinct black necklace on their yellow breast. They breed in Canada and parts of the United States, migrating to northern South America for the winter.
