A team of dedicated board members, volunteers, and student interns has published every page in Volume 9. This volume includes 360 images of paintings and lyrical descriptions of birds, now available online for everyone to enjoy anywhere in the world. This is a monumental task. Each volume requires approximately 400 hours to photograph, edit, transcribe, catalog, and publish online. We need your support to complete this work.
If you're tech-savvy, have a good eye, are meticulous with details, and love structured data, please consider volunteering by emailing us at hello@rexbrasher.org.
We encourage all bird lovers and supporters to consider a monetary donation to support our mission to make Rex's work available for everyone. You can provide a one-time or recurring donation online.
The OLIVE WARBLER is said to resemble the Pine Warbler in its slow, rather deliberate, habits. Chapman found it very abundant among the pines at Las Vigas in the State of Vera Cruz, Mexico, at an altitude of eight thousand feet, in company with young of the year, feeding leisurely among the branches, some occasionally desending to the ground for food. Stephens found it not uncommon in the Ghiricahua Mountains, and Henshaw secured three specimens on Mount Graham, Arizona, in September, 1874. It is apparently a rare bird in the United States.
Howard states the nests are very beautiful affairs, built like those of the Bluegray Gnatcatcher, of moss, lichens, fir blossoms and spider webs, with a lining of fine rootlets and located on a horizontal pine limb or in a fork of a red fir from thirty to fifty feet above ground.
