songbird

The yellow-rumped warbler is a migratory songbird that spends its winters in Los Angeles.

“When it gets too cold, I’ll turn around. Hopefully the songbird will visit me, and I’ll have some new tunes for us soon, God bless you!”

The stocky songbird normally travels between the eastern United States and lowland South American forests twice a year.

The fire also swept through parts of the island that have rare habitats for sensitive plant and animal species found nowhere else, such as the endangered San Clemente loggerhead shrike, a carnivorous songbird.
