Description
These Galapagos Yellow Warblers are a fairly common bird. These would show up when we had breakfast at our hotel every morning. Warblers are not endemic to the Galapagos and may be found anywhere from Alaska to Peru. The male has thin red streaks on its chest and a red cap. It is common throughout the Galapagos Islands, especially found in mangroves or manzanillo trees.
The Yellow Warbler is a small songbird with a thin pointed beak. It is mostly yellow in colour and the male has reddish streaks on his chest. The Yellow Warbler stands around 12 – 13 centimetres (5 – 6 inches) in height, has a wing-span of 16 – 20 centimetres (6 – 8 inches), and weighs approximately 9 – 11 grams (0.32 – 0.39 ounces).
The Yellow Warbler has indistinct yellow wing bars, yellow spots on its tail and black eyes which are surrounded by indistinct yellow eye rings.
