Canada Warbler

Trade Card Illustration for Arm & Hammer baking soda
This pretty Warbler may be known by the necklace of black spots across its yellow throat. This mark is obscure in young birds, and at one time they were supposed to be a distinct species. The Canada is one of the Flycatching Warblers, catching its insect prey on the wing. It is an abundant bird in the rhododendron thickets of the North and along the Allegheny Mountains to North Carolina. Like its relatives, it moves southward in the fall and spends the winter in the mountains of South America. Its song is sweet and lively, superior to that of most other Warblers. The nest of strips of soft bark, moss and leaves, lined with rootlets, is well hidden in mossy banks or beneath large roots, and the four or five eggs are white, spotted with reddish brown.
