Distribution and Habitat
The black-throated blue warblers are a migrant species. They breed in temperate mature deciduous or mixed forest with thick understory in the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada. At late summer, they migrate to the tropical wooded and scrub habitats in the Greater Antilles for wintering. Along their migration, the black-throated blue warblers are observed in habitats like parks and gardens. Nesting sites play a more important role in determining the habitat of black-throated blue warblers than foraging sites. This is especially significant for an open-nesting species like the black-throated blue warblers. The black-throated blue warblers live in deciduous and mixed coniferous-deciduous woodlands with thick undergrowth, often in hilly and mountainous regions.

Famous quotes containing the words distribution and/or habitat:
“The question for the country now is how to secure a more equal distribution of property among the people. There can be no republican institutions with vast masses of property permanently in a few hands, and large masses of voters without property.... Let no man get by inheritance, or by will, more than will produce at four per cent interest an income ... of fifteen thousand dollars] per year, or an estate of five hundred thousand dollars.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“Neither moral relations nor the moral law can swing in vacuo. Their only habitat can be a mind which feels them; and no world composed of merely physical facts can possibly be a world to which ethical propositions apply.”
—William James (1842–1910)
