This page is for the Yellow-rumped Warbler (Setophaga coronata). I have seen this species a few times at area parks. The November 13, 2021 photo is my first photographic evidence of this bird. The best photograph I have taken of the Yellow-rumped Warbler to date (above) is also the photo from November 13, 2021 at the Fort Worth Nature Preserve, Fort Worth, TX. Although it doesn’t show in my representative photo, one of my other photos below you can clearly see the yellow patch on its rump.

The following photographs are the best representative images from different dates and locations than my species representative example.
