Se alimenta principalmente de insectos, sobre la vegetación, en el suelo, o en el vuelo. En invierno forman grupos cuando se alimentan. En migración frecuenta bosques secundarios densos, bordes de bosque, áreas semiabiertas y arbustivas,y parques bien arborizados. Forrajea activamente en busca de insectos de las hojas y ramitas.

Collared or Canada Warbler (Wilsonia canadensis)

Size: 13 cm Altitude: less than 2,800 m.a.s.l.

Distribution: Nests in eastern Canada and the extreme eastern United States, including the Great Lakes. Winters in northern South America: Panama, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and northern Brazil.

Natural history: It inhabits dense, moist and semi-moist forests at low to mid-elevations. It is found in Canadian forests east of the Rockies and in wooded areas of the northeastern United States. They build a cup-shaped nest on the ground in mounds of Sphagnum moss, tree stumps, or other wood debris. It feeds mainly on insects, on vegetation, on the ground, or in flight. In winter, they form groups while feeding. During migration, they frequent dense secondary forests, forest edges, semi-open and shrubby areas, and well-wooded parks. They actively forage for insects on leaves and twigs. They are found alone or in small groups, usually with other warblers or mixed flocks.

About

The Music of Nature proudly presents "Canada Warbler," featuring beautiful closeup footage and excellent sound. A northern species, the Canada Warbler is found in forests with a luxurious understory, and also in second growth forest or disturbed areas with dense thickets of shrubs, saplings, and briars.

The staccato song of the male is not particularly musical. I call this species "the chippy chappy warbler."
