The Yellow Warbler or "Summer Yellowbird" is a beau- tiful, little, golden sprite that we are sure to find flitting about in clumps of willows or alders that overhang almost any brook. We often find them, too, in orchards for they take very kindly to civilization. Its song is a simple little ditty, "cher-wee. cher-wee, swee- swee", ver}' similar to that of the Chestnut-sided Warbler and the Redstart. Yellow Warblers weave very pretty little homes of plant.
