The Pine Warbler is the only warbler that regularly consumes significant quantities of seeds, augmenting the usual warbler diet of insects and other arthropods with berries and the seeds of pine, sumac, grass, and other herbaceous plants.
Pine Warblers are intimately tied to pines, breeding most abundantly in the pure pine forests of the Southeast, where they are resident.
Pine Warblers appear larger and larger-billed than either species, and are further distinguished by unstreaked upperparts, longer tail extension, more white in the tail, and facial pattern.

 Bird Conservation
The jack pine, a small to medium-size tree that can reach a height of 90 feet in old age, depends on fire for renewal, since its cones pop open and release their seeds only in intense heat.
But scientists say that 38,000 acres of jack pines, of the right age and density, are required each year for breeding, and that still more management areas are needed if that goal is to be met.
The goal of the species-recovery plan, last revised in 1985, was to reestablish a self-sustaining Kirtland's warbler population throughout the bird's known range at a minimum level of 1,000 pairs.
