A classic field guide to these beloved birds, updated with the latest taxonomic information.
Nothing says spring to a birder like seeing the flash of bright plumage as a warbler, recently arrived from its southern wintering grounds, flutters from branch to branch, searching for insects. Eastern North America is home to over 40 species of warblers, and Warblers of Eastern North America is the essential guidebook to identifying and enjoying the vast array of species that inhabit this area of the continent.

Here are just a handful of the species profiled in eastern North American warblers: Tennessee warbler; Chestnut-sided Warbler; Yellow-rumped "Myrtle" warbler; Blackburnian singer; Cerulean singer; Hermit Warbler; Painted Redstart; And many, many more!
