Description
The common Whitethroat is a medium-sized warbler identifiable by its long tail. The bird flicks its tail as it darts out from cover in search of insects. In the fall, the bird also eats fruit and berries that fall to the ground. The bird is rarely found in urban areas, preferring open fields, gardens, and meadows.
