Pine Warblers seem almost as much a part of pine woods as the trees
themselves. They feed on the ground below the pines, they glean from the
bark of the trunk, or from the clusters of 'needles' on the topmost
boughs, the very peace of the pines is expressed in their calm, even,
musical trill; and where there are no pines there are no Pine Warblers.
During the migration, it is true, they may be found elsewhere, but at
that season they are travelers, and travelers cannot always be
responsible for their surroundings. Their nest, of course, is always
built in pines, usually from 30-50 feet above the ground. The eggs laid
in March in the South, and early June in the North, are white wreathed
with brown at the larger end.

A tail-wagging Warbler that frequents bushy places, weedy fields and
open pine woods and gardens, living near the ground where it may be
easily seen. Its call-note, _chip_, is distinctive and one learns in
time to recognize it. Its song is a trill, clear and sweet, but by no
means loud.

The Palm Warbler (_D. p. palmarum_) is the Mississippi Valley form of
the Atlantic coast race, from which it differs in having the line over
the eye white instead of yellow; the y
