Virginia's Warbler (Vermivora virginiae)
Coronado National Forest, Carr Canyon, AZ
Despite what its name may suggest, Virginia's Warbler is not named after the state of Virginia, which makes sense as the birds range only reaches as far east as the state of Texas. The bird was named for Virginia Anderson, the wife of an army surgeon who discovered the bird in New Mexico in 1858.
Diet consists mostly of insects. Forages on the ground, in foliage, or catches insects in mid-air.
