Dendroica discolor prairie warbler
D. d. paludicola) have less white on their tails. Prairie warblers are similar in appearance to other warbler species. Pine warblers (Dendroica pinus) are most similar, but pine warblers are bigger, have lighter markings, and do not have chestnut patches on their backs. Magnolia warblers (Dendroica magnolia) may be mistaken for juvenile prairie warblers, but magnolia warblers have gray heads and yellow rears. Every breeding season prairie warblers form mating pairs. After they migrate north, males establish
Dendroica pinus pine warbler
Pine warblers, Dendroica pinus, range throughout most of eastern North America. Their northern range extends to the most southern portions of Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec in Canada. The southern extent of their range extends from Florida, to the southern tip of Texas. The eastern border of the range is the Atlantic coast of the United States (US) and Canada, while its western range runs through the US states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, and Texas. The breeding range of pine
Dendrohyrax arboreus eastern tree hyrax; southern tree hyrax
Dendroica kirtlandii Kirtland's warbler
The Kirland's Warbler breeds in northern central Michigan, in an area that is about 100 miles long and 60 miles wide. It is also a neotropical migrant, spending the winter in the Bahamas. The Kirtland's warbler nests in groves of young Jack pines (Pinus banksiana) ranging in height from 5 to 18 feet. They also seek out areas with ground cover composed of blueberries, bearberry, or sweetfern. These warblers also require a very specific soil type, the Grayling Sands, which is important because they nest on
Dendroica tigrina Cape May warbler
Cape May warblers (Dendroica tigrina) overwinter in the Neotropical region and spend the summer breeding season in the Nearctic region. More specifically, they spend the winter in parts of Central America, including Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, and the northernmost sections of Colombia and Venezuela. There are also overwintering populations throughout the Caribbean islands. In the summer, Cape May warblers occupy much of southeastern and central Canada, as far west as Alberta and southern parts of the

Dendragapus obscurus blue grouse
Dendrocopos leucotos white-backed woodpecker
Dendroica chrysoparia golden-cheeked warbler
During the summer months Dendroica chrysoparia has a very narrow breeding range on the Edwards Plateau, Lampasas Cut-Plain, and Llano Uplift regions of central Texas. The bird migrates in the winter months to the highlands of Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. The golden-cheeked warbler is an extreme habitat specialist that requires stands of mature Ashe juniper to build its nest. During the breeding season the birds inhabit woodlands containing a majority of Ashe juniper along with other trees such as

Dendroica cerulea cerulean warbler
Dendroica cerulea breeds principally in the Mississippi and Ohio river valleys, west of the Appalachian Mountains. Its breeding area ranges from central Minnesota, northern Wisconsin, central Michigan, southern Ontario, northern New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island south to Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and North Carolina. Cerulean Warblers breed very locally in eastern North Dakota, eastern Nebraska, eastern Kansas, eastern Oklahoma, northeast Texas, northern Louisiana, western Massachusetts
Dendroica palmarum palm warbler
Dendroica palmarum breeds in the boreal forests of North America. This species breeds from northern Canada south through the northern United States. It is also classified as a neotropical migrant. On the East Coast, this species winters regularly from southern Delaware south through Florida and along the Gulf Coast through southern Texas. This species also winters throughout the West Indies, along the Yucatan Peninsula through Belize, and along coastal Honduras (Dunn and Garrett 1997; Wilson 1996). On the

Dendrobates auratus Green and Black Dart-poison Frog
Dendrogale murina northern smooth-tailed tree shrew
Dendroica fusca Blackburnian warbler
Blackburnian warblers inhabit deciduous and coniferous forests during the summer. They prefer coniferous forests, but will be found in spruce trees or hemlock in deciduous forests. In any forest type in their summer range, blackburnian warblers are most active foraging and vocalizing in conifers. Tree species preferred by blackburnian warblers are pines Pinus, spruces Picea, and hemlocks Tsuga. They prefer the upper third of tree canopies in dense, mature forests. During the winter they are found in wet
Dendroica striata blackpoll warbler
blackpoll warblers possess. Further, blackpoll warbler bills are slightly thinner than those of bay-breasted warblers and pine warblers (Dendroica pinus), about 9 to 11mm in length. Blackpoll warblers are primarily monogamous, though males have been known to be polygynous on rare occasions when these warblers have greater fitness. These warblers may arrive on breeding grounds as early as May until June. Males arrive on breeding grounds first to select their territories, and they sing a high-pitched song
Dendrolagus scottae tenkile tree kangaroo
Dendroica caerulescens black-throated blue warbler
Black-throated blue warblers are found in northeastern North America in the summer, breeding season. They are found from the northern Great Lakes region east to the Canadian maritime provinces, throughout New England, and south through the Appalachian mountains. In winter they are found in southernmost Florida, the Antilles south to Trinidad, and the coastal Yucatan peninsula, from Mexico and Belize to Honduras. Black-throated blue warblers are found in tracts of undisturbed deciduous and mixed-deciduous
Dendroica nigrescens black-throated grey warbler
scrub forests and chaparral along the western coast of Mexico and predominately, California, Arizona, and New Mexico. Occasionally, they are found in riparian zones, and mangroves with scrubby habitat.During migration, the black-throated gray warbler is found in Central America. Before breeding season they migrate through the western region of North America. This warbler rests in juniper trees (Juniperus osteosperma) and pinyon pines (Pinus cembroides) until it reaches the tropical chaparrals in Mexico and
Dendrolagus bennettianus Bennett's tree kangaroo
Dendromus mystacalis chestnut climbing mouse
Dentroctonus ponderosae (the mountain pine beetle) inhabits a large portion of western North America. This species ranges from British Columbia in the north to northern Mexico in the south, as well as from North Dakota west to the Pacific coast. Since D. ponderosae infests Pinus ponderosa, as well as other trees in the genus Pinus, the range of the mountain pine beetle is mostly coincident with that of forests containing these trees. Mountain pine beetles infest Pinus trees in western North American forests
Dendroica coronata yellow-rumped warbler
Dendroica petechia yellow warbler
Yellow warblers spend the majority of the year throughout much of North America, including Alaska, northern Canada, and the northern 2/3 of the United States. A highly migratory bird, Dendroica petechia winters in southern California, southern Florida, and south through the Brazilian Amazon, Bolivia, and Peru (Ehrlich 1992). Dendroica petechia prefers moist habitats with high insect abundance. The presence of willows is one common feature of yellow warbler habitat north of Mexico. South of Mexico mangroves

areas. There is no information to suggest that Dendroica virens has a positive economic impact on humans. Although, like most warblers, these are popular birds for birdwatching and may be indicators of ecosystem health. There is no information to suggest that Dendroica virens has a negative impact on humans. Dendroica virens is not currently considered threatened. However, destruction of forests in breeding and wintering ranges reduces their habitat and leads to the disappearance of the species in that area

over water or fly out to capture passing insects from perches. They forage mainly at dusk and dawn and when there is sufficient moonlight for low-light visual detection of flying insects. Chuck-will's-widows use their rictal bristles, the bristles around their mouths, to scoop up insects. They may also forage on the ground for insects or frogs, especially when they are molting, and they sometimes pursue and capture small birds, including palm warblers (Dendroica palmarum), yellow warblers (Dendroica
