Miscellany: Yellow is one of the most widely distributed breeding warbler in North America, absent (largely) only from Texas east to the Carolinas and south to Florida and the Gulf states. Our Yellow Warblers probably winter in Central or northern South America but they remember where they've come from. In one study in Manitoba, all 41 of the returning adult males occupied the same or nearly adjacent breeding territory as in the previous year.
