Photo: Yellow-rumped Warbler, Barbara J. Baird/Audubon Photography Awards
We are pleased to announce the winner of our Monday Nature Mystery, John Nolley!
We had some great guesses! John was the first to post the correct answer: Yellow-rumped Warbler (Setophaga coronata). According to All About Birds: Yellow-rumped Warblers winter across much of central and southeastern U.S., and they sometimes come to backyards if food is offered. To attract them, try putting out sunflower seed, raisins, suet and peanut butter. Find out more about what this bird likes to eat by using the Project FeederWatch Common Feeder Birds bird list.
Each Monday we’ll post a new photo and identify the previous week’s winner who will receive an ASNV hat or tote bag.
Here is this week’s mystery:
