The Wilson's Warbler is a small, bright yellow warbler with a beady black eye and, in males, a neat black cap. It actively flits through low vegetation and willows, often hovering to snatch insects from foliage. It is abundant along the Pacific Coast migration corridor and breeds from Alaska to the mountains of the Southwest.
