Description
Frontal view of a Palm Warbler perched on top of a tree, wintering in Florida.
Palm Warblers are small songbirds, but they are on the larger side for a warbler and have a fuller looking belly. Their posture is more upright than a typical warbler and more like a pipit.
Palm Warblers are dull brownish-olive above with yellow under the tail and throat. The outside corners of their tails flash white in flight. In eastern birds the belly is yellow, while in western birds the belly is white.
They mainly forage on open ground or in low vegetation, rather than in forest canopy as many warblers do
