Golden Cheeked Warbler

This warbler is also known as the Gold Finch of Texas. Breeding in Central Texas it is now an endangered species.

“Golden-cheeked warblers will only remain in Texas for the breeding season, from March to June. They will migrate with other songbird species along Mexico's Sierra Madre Oriental. By the first week of March, the warblers will return to Texas to breed. During the winter season (November–February), warblers will travel to Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras, and Mexico” [credit iNaturalist.]

I saw this bird in a wooded area on High Island just off the Bolivar Peninsular.
