Species in Focus: Northern Yellow Warbler

NOV 25, 202520 MIN

Description

<p>The Northern Yellow Warbler is a bright and cheerful sounding songbird found during the breeding season all across North America.</p> <p>Males of the species are yellow with some red flecks along their chest, and are very songful.</p> <p>They have a number of different songs, but their most common one can be described as sounding like “sweet sweet, sweeter than sweet”.</p> <p>In 2025, this species was split from what was called simply the Yellow Warbler, so this might be the first you’re hearing of it being a Northern Yellow Warbler. This is in contrast to the Mangrove Yellow Warbler, which has a reddish head and is a nonmigratory species found along the mangrove shores from Florida, south to Mexico, the Caribbean, through Central America down to South America.</p> <p>Credits</p> <p>Songbirding: Species in Focus is a Songbirding Studios production.</p> <p>Recorded, engineered, narrated and created by Rob Porter.</p> <p>The Songbirding cover art (Blackburnian Warbler) is by Lauren Helton: <a href="https://tinylongwing.carbonmade.com/projects/5344062" rel="nofollow">https://tinylongwing.carbonmade.com/projects/5344062</a></p> <p>Creative Commons music is from Universfield.</p> <p>Learn how to support the show at <a href="https://songbirding.com/support" rel="nofollow">https://songbirding.com/support</a></p> <p>Support Songbirding: A Birding-by-ear Podcast by contributing to their tip jar: <a href="https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/songbirding" rel="payment nofollow">https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/songbirding</a></p> <p>This podcast is powered by <a href="https://pinecast.com" rel="nofollow">Pinecast</a>.
