Grey-crowned Yellowthroat

Geothlypis poliocephala

The Grey-crowned Yellowthroat, scientifically known as Geothlypis poliocephala, is a charming bird belonging to the Parulidae family. It is distinguished by its subtle yet attractive plumage.

Identification Tips

When attempting to identify this species, look for its defining grey crown, which contrasts with the yellow throat for which it is named. The bird's overall appearance is a blend of understated greys and yellows, typical of the Geothlypis genus.

Habitat

The Grey-crowned Yellowthroat favors subtropical or tropical moist shrubland environments. It is also known to inhabit areas that were once forests but have since been heavily degraded.

Distribution

This species has a broad range, with sightings reported in Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, and even parts of the United States.

Conservation status

The IUCN Red List categorizes the Grey-crowned Yellowthroat as Least Concern, indicating that, at present, there are no immediate threats to its population levels that would warrant a higher degree of conservation action.

Such a great app!
I didn’t think I could enjoy birding more but this app makes it so much better. Some great features and a really great way to share your sightings with your friends or fellow birders nearby or around the world! ❤️

Loving it
I really enjoy being able to interact with other birders on this platform! This seems like a great way to meet other birders and find some new spots.

Makes you want to spot birds more
I think this app is fun. It makes you want to spot birds more so I guess in a way it encourages you to get out and about instead of sitting in front of the TV.

Work together with community
Been loving using this app to log my bird sightings and work together with community members to identify different birds. I've already learned a lot since I started about a month ago!

Great app for learning Birds
I’ve been using the app for a couple of months and love it....Someone said it’s like a real life Pokémon Go for birds. They’re not far off! It’s something that the family can do that gets you out and about. Well worth downloading no matter your age.
