The nest is usually skillfully fastened to several small twigs, and is a neat, compact, cup-shaped structure, made of grayish, hempen fibres, slender stems of plai:ts and leaves, lined with soft plant down and feathers. The Cowbird makes the nest of this Warbler a favorite receptacle for depositing her eggs. In United States the Yellow Warbler begins nest building about the first of May. The eggs are four or five in number. They have a greenish-white or even a decided green ground-color, spotted, usually in a wreath around the larger end, witfi umber- brown, blackish and lilac-gray.
