Heading North
The Northern Parula is a small warbler of the canopy found in mature forests and swamps. Northern Parulas breed in mature forests along streams, swamps, and other bottomlands. They're closely associated with epiphytic plants that grow on the branches of canopy trees. In the southern U.S. they use Spanish moss; farther north they use beard moss. The forest was full of these guys on this particular day!
