Townsend's Warbler

The Townsend's Warbler is a casual visitor to campus with five records extending from early September to early November. It is a common spring and fall migrant and uncommon winter visitor in southern California.

Male Townsend's Warblers can be identified by their broadly black-and-yellow striped heads with black throat and yellow breast, olive green upperparts, and white belly with black streaking down the sides. Females have a mostly yellow throat and are olive green instead of black on the head.
