| Abstract | The Yellow Warbler symbolizes mature riparian woodland, that is, streamside cottonwood, willow, alder, and ash trees that have reached their full height. It is a fairly common breeding summer resident in this habitat, though the habitat itself is scarce and patchy. Though the Yellow Warbler is recognized by the California Department of Fish and Game as a species of special concern, since the late 1980s San Diego County's population has increased, evidently in response to the widespread trapping of the Brown-headed Cowbird, which parasitizes the warbler heavily. The Yellow Warbler is also common as a migrant passing through the county. It is rare as a winter visitor, in riparian woodland near the coast almost exclusively. |
