	All About Birds
		The Arctic Warbler is the only member of the large group of drab Old World warblers that has established a foothold in North America.
		The Arctic Warbler is one of the few species that breeds in North America and winters in Asia.

	Arctic Warbler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Arctic Warblers are unrelated to wood warblers (family Parulidae), although these groups are alike in plumage and habit.
		A small (13cm) bird, the Arctic Warbler is relatively large-headed and long-winged, with long first feathers on their wings (primary projections).
		The Arctic Warbler winters from Southeast Asia to the Philippines, Moluccas, East Indies and is widespread in northern Eurasia.

		It appears that this species could easily be confused with Arctic Warbler in a brief view (on paper at least) but it has a distinctive tit-like call: duu-ti or dir-tee, quite unlike the call of the bird at Kilauea.
		Arctic Warbler breeds right across the Northern Palearctic, China, Japan and Alaska and winters in South East Asia, the Philippines and NW Australia.
		Large-billed Leaf Warbler breeds in India and southwest China and winters in southern India and Sri Lanka, and is unlikely to be encountered in the extreme east.

	Arctic Warbler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Arctic Warbler, Phylloscopus borealis, is a widespread leaf warbler in birch or mixed birch forest near water throughout its breeding range in Fennoscandia and northern Asia.
		This warbler is strongly migratory and the entire population winters in southeast Asia.
		This is a typical leaf warbler in appearance, greyish-green above and off-white below.

	Warbler, Birds, Warbler, Bird Pictures, Catalog, Encyclopedia
		Date : 12/21/2006 Time : 1:49:03 PM The name warbler is used for birds of two subfamilies of the flycatcher family, Muscicapidae; for birds of the New World wood warbler family, Parulidae; and for several species of birds in the thrush family, Turdidae.
		The New World wood warblers usually have an unwarblerlike song and probably were named for their Old World counterparts because of their similar body shape, quick movements, and insectivorous habits.
		In addition to their songs, a prime difference between the New World wood warblers and the Old World warblers is that the former have nine primary feathers (flight feathers on the "hand") whereas the latter have ten.

	Leaf warbler
		Leaf Warblers are very small insectivorous birds belonging to the genus Phylloscopus of the Old World warbler family Sylviidae.
		These are active, constantly moving, warblers always associated with trees, though normally in fairly open woodland rather than tight plantations.
		Compared to some other warbler families, their songs are very simple.

	Arctic tern - The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds
		With its long tail streamers and general shape the Arctic tern deserves the local name of 'sea swallow'.
		Arctic terns are the ultimate long distance migrants - summer visitors to the UK and winter visitors to the Antarctic.
		Arctic terns will swoop down on intruders and hit them with their feet or beaks.

	Ijima's Warbler
		Ijima's Warblers feed in 10-meter-high evergreen trees, among the crowns, at Inaodake and Kabadake, often fluttering down to branches 2 m from the ground.
		All Arctic Warblers seen showed strong bills and a characteristic thick-necked profile when the head was stretched; they also showed dull greenish crowns lacking central stripes, with more diffuse gradation into the ear coverts (which evinced some grayish streaking cutting into the green).
		Call: During a discussion on warblers included in the 2001 Annual Meeting of the Ornithological Society of Japan, one scholar said that the song of Ijima's Warbler could be classified into two types: one (type A) is the lower and slower 'chui-chui-chui', and the other (type B) is the higher and faster 'shiri-shiri-shiri'.

		Arctic Warblers do not breed anywhere else in North America, giving Alaska a tremendous responsibility toward their conservation.
		Unfortunately, we know very little about Arctic Warblers in North America, including most aspects of their breeding biology, habitat requirements, and population size and trend.

		Arctic Warblers are casual migrants to the Pribilofs but likely go largely undetected due to their reclusive habits.
		Care must be taken, especially in fall to ensure that a candidate Arctic Warbler is not one of many other species of Phylloscopus that could reach the islands.
		Good fieldmarks for Arctic Warbler include the presence of a white wingbar, prominent but thin white supercilum that does not extend across the forehead, pale legs, dusky flanks, greenish upperparts, and long primary projection.

		The aquatic warbler is a regular but scarce autumn migrant to certain areas in southern Britain, visiting on its way between breeding grounds in eastern Europe and its winter home in West Africa.
		Its dependence on a specialised and vulnerable breeding habitat means it has become a globally threatened and declining species.
		The RSPB reserve at Marazion Marsh, Cornwall records several aquatic warblers annually and they have also been seen at Radipole Lake and Lodmoor reserves in Dorset.
