 Chestnut-sided Warbler. 

 Both this species and the Black and White Warbler are 

 about equally common, but the nests of the Chestnut-side 

 are much more easily found. The birds are not as careful 

 to avoid being seen and the nests are above ground so that 

 they are often found without watching tlie owner. They 

 are, however, located usually at the top of low bushes so 

 they can be seen only below by removing the protecting 

 leaves from above.
