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.
In the pine-covered strip between Lake Worth and the Everglades, Florida, I found these birds so numerous in February that their combined trills assumed almost the steady shrilling of peepers in an April night. I found them nearly as numerous among the pine barrens of Long Island in May where they searched the tree limbs with characteristic slow intensity. Tho they prefer pines their education has not advanced sufficiently to distinguish between pinus and tsuga for here in Dutchess County, New York, several pairs nest in our hemlock grove.
NEST: A solid structure of grapevine bark strips and leaf stems, well lined with feathers and hair, usually placed on horizontal pine limb, either close to the trunk or well out, from 15 to 80 feet above ground. The female does most of the home building, while the male encourages her with song!
EGGS: 4; from dull creamy to pale bluish white boldly wreathed with heavy spots of many shades of brown and lavender.
Eastern United States and southern British Provinces. Among the few Warblers wintering in southern part of its breeding range.
A 50-foot tree with stout trunk up to 3 feet in diameter, distributed on dry uplands from New Brunswick to Georgia, west to Tennessee. The common pine of Atlantic coast.
