Magee Marsh, Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge. The prothonotary warbler is characterized by its brilliant yellow head and body, with a greenish back and blue-gray wings. Males are particularly striking, while females and immature birds are slightly duller but still distinctive. This warbler is unique among eastern warblers as it nests in cavities, often utilizing old woodpecker holes or artificial nest boxes.
