Black-and-White Warbler Mniotilta varia
http://www.kwic.com/~pagodavista/schoolhouse/species/birds/bwarbler.htmThe Black-and-White Warbler is a Wood Warbler and chooses to live in deciduous forests and nests on the ground set in the base of trees or stumps. This warbler breeds fron southern Canada to the southern United States.

BlogGot wood-warbler questions? If so, I have answers for you. I'm Daniel Edelstein -- biologist, birding guide, birding instructor (www.warblerwatch.com and edelstein@earthlink.net) -- who ponders: Are there any wonders in our world more fascinating than the elegant beauty of wood-warblers?

Visualizing Western Warbler Songs
WebsiteThose of you who began birding before 1980 will probably remember that the field guide of choice was A Guide to the Field Identification of Birds of North America now usually referred to as the Golden Guide. Produced by Golden Press, it was the best comprehensive guide to North American Birds at the time. It was among the first field guides to place illustrations next to text and include range maps in the margins. It was one of the first pocket sized field guides to illustrate birds in natural and varied settings. And then there were those wonderful sonograms...
