This Yellow-rumped Warbler carving was hand-crafted from solid Basswood. The Yellow-rumped Warbler has a yellow rump, yellow patch on the side, yellow crown patch and white tail patches. There are slight color variations in sub-species, including the northern and eastern birds, "Myrtle Warbler" and Western "Audubon's Warbler". The song is a slow warble, usually rising or falling at the end in "Audubon's' and is a musical trill in one song of "Myrtle". The call note of "Myrtle" is lower and flatter. Species is abundant in coniferous or mixed woodlands.
