Birdorable 186: Golden-winged Warbler

Cute Birdorable Golden-winged Warbler

Today's addition in our Birdorable Bonanza is the Golden-winged Warbler, a cute little warbler that breeds in eastern North America and in winter migrates as far south as Ecuador. It is also a very rare vagrant to western Europe, where it was once recorded at a supermarket parking lot in Maidstone, Kent, in 1989.
