Common Yellowthroat

















COMON YELLOWTHROAT
Geothlyips trichas: 4.5-5.5"
Cornell link

Common Yellowthroats are very active, and have a call sounding "witchity witchity witchity"
They range across the entire US and southern Canada.

Disimlar to its name, this is the first Common Yellowthroat I have ever seen. And, I had to hunt pretty severly to get a picture of it. It seemed to peek out at me from inside of the shrubbery over and over again (see picture 1). Its a pretty little guy.
