YELLOW WARBLER 



tions of the eastern mountains, such parts of the western mountains 

 as are above 6,000 to 8,000 feet, and the barren grounds of the Arctic. 



Summer Range. — Breeds throughout its range in the United 

 States and Canada. 



Winter Range. — Southern Mexico to Peru and northeastern 

 Brazil; no West Indian record. 



Spring Migration. — More notes have been contributed by the 

 observers on the Yellow Warbler than on any other species of Warbler, 

 and the following records are an epitome of about two thousand obser- 

 vations during a period of more than twenty years. The winter range 

 of the Yellow Warbler and its subspecies extends from western 

 Mexico to Dutch Guiana, a longitudinal winter range equalled by 

 few species. But, though occuring throughout Central America, it 

 is absent from the West India Islands, and reaches the eastern United 

 States in the spring by a roundabout course across the Gulf of Mexico, 

 and is one of the later Warblers to arrive in the Gulf States.
