In Connecticut, it can be found nesting in coniferous forests in the northwest corner of the state.

The Myrtle Warbler breeds throughout Alaska and Canada, as well as in the northern states in the eastern U. Our eastern subspecies has a white throat while the western birdвЂ™s throat is yellow. This cheery bird is also known as the Myrtle Warbler in the East, and AudubonвЂ™s Warbler in the West. These evergreen shrubs in the genus Myrica bear wax-coated fruits that are eaten by many bird species, but only one warbler вЂ“ the Yellow-rumped.) (Also known as wax myrtle or myrtle, there are six species of bayberry that are native to the East Coast of the United States. It possesses the enzymes required to digest the waxy coating on the fruits and to glean nutrients from the wax. But the Yellow-rumped has a neat trick that allows it to stay through the winter: it has the ability to feed on and digest the waxy fruits of the bayberry. And all of them, except the yellow-rumped, will continue south and out of our area.
