Status of the Cape May warbler (Dendroica tigrina) in Alberta

Description

This wildlife status report looks at the Cape May warbler, a migrant songbird that breeds across the boreal forests of Canada and the northeastern United States and winters in the West Indies and the east coast of Central America. The Cape May warbler is uncommon in most areas of Alberta and concerns over the degradation and loss of suitable breeding habitat in the province have led to its inclusion on the list of species that may be at risk. This report is part of the Alberta Wildlife Status Report series, which provides comprehensive summaries of selected wildlife species intended to be useful to those managing populations of species and their habitats, and to help identify species that may be formally designated as endangered or threatened.
