Tennessee Warblers were mis-named by the ornithologist Alexander Wilson when he sighted them in Tennessee, a stop on a migration that can take them from Central America to as far north as Alaska. They breed in inaccessible areas, so it’s not certain which members of the pair builds their small cup-shaped nests, which are usually embedded in sphagnum moss or other ground cover. Like so many nocturnal migrants, thousands are killed in collisions with buildings and television towers. They thrive well in second-growth forests, and in shade-grown coffee farms in their wintering grounds.
