The Common Yellowthroat is a small warbler of the migratory species with an extensive range, occurring throughout North America and Central America down to northern South America. The male has distinctive yellow underparts, with a black mask above the eyes and throat, while the female has a plainer greenish-olive back and yellowish underparts. The Common Yellowthroat often perches atop a tall stalk to rap out his distinctive song, wichity-wichity-wichity.
