November 21, 2023 - Altamira Yellowthroat (Geothlypis flavovelata) Found along the coast of northeastern Mexico, these wood warblers live in reeds in marshes, ponds, and irrigation ditches. While the specifics of their diet are not known, they likely eat invertebrates, seeds, fruit, and other plant foods, mostly foraging among cattails. Almost nothing is known about their breeding behavior but a female in breeding condition was observed in May and an immature bird was seen in August. Classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN, they are suffering population declines due to habitat loss and degradation in their small range.

Genus: Myiothlypis
Tumblr media
Black-crested Warbler (type species)
A heavily South American genus, with only one species (Buff-rumped Warbler) getting up into Central America. Originally all of these species were included in Basileuterus before they were split out into a separate genus.
It was hard to find any additional information on this genus, possibly because of the split, or because most research in South America is likely to be limited to Spanish and thus not easily accessible on the English internet.
The 'myio' in this genus is a derived form of muia/muias, which means "fly". I originally thought it could have been "myo" for "muscle", which would have been hilariously wrong. Thlupis comes as an unknown species of bird referenced by Aristotle (possibly a single time) in one of his writings. It is more likely that thlupis is being used as a reference to other genus' of New World Warblers, such as Geothlypis (yellowthroats), Leiothlypis, and Oreothlypis. This would leave the etymology as "small fly bird", or more likely "small flycatching bird".
All of the warblers in this genus are sedentary, which is a big departure from the Setophaga warblers in brackets previous. This means that none of these birds will migrate, and if they do have any sort of movement pattern, it is likely to be localized within their homerange rather than a grueling trek to new habitats. This is the case with most tropical breeding birds, as migration is a hard task to undergo and only really possible if the body is equipped to handle the journey. For many sedentary species, this just isn't the plan.

The Wood Warbler (Phylloscopus sibilatrix) is a common and widespread leaf warbler which breeds throughout northern and temperate Europe, and just into the extreme west of Asian Russia in the southern Ural Mountains.
This warbler is strongly migratory and the entire population winters in tropical Africa.

American Redstart, near Turtle Mountain provincial park, early June 2022. 
This is a male American Redstart in late May / early June 2022. He keeps his tail fanned out as he searches for insects--supposedly the bright colour scares them out of hiding so he can catch them?
These birds would follow us when we'd hike. This is a strategy that some birds (especially insectivores) use: follow the large mammal, they're sure to attract insects!  Good job, A+ birb, eat all the bugs.

November 6, 2023 - Choco Warbler (Myiothlypis chlorophrys) These warblers are found west of the Andes in and around lowland forests in parts of Colombia and Ecuador. Foraging in pairs or small flocks high in trees, often with other species, they probably feed primarily on invertebrates. Their breeding behavior is not well known, but adults have been observed carrying nesting materials in early October and late January and a pair feeding fledglings was seen in early June.

This Wood Warbler ended up being the highlight of today. Over the last few years, this species has gone from an uncommon migrant to a real scarcity, even at migration hotspots like Spurn, and feels as special as a Pallas’s Warbler! Of course, this is hugely concerning - but it’s hard not to be delighted when one is feeding just in front of you!
The bird can be aged as a first-winter due to the uniformly fresh wings. Adults only moult partially before autumn migration, doing the body and sometimes tertials and inner greater coverts, or even a tail feather or two. But the rest of the plumage would be worn.
Adults and young birds undergo a complete moult in their wintering grounds in central Africa, meaning they can’t be aged when they return in the spring.
