During the capture process some typographical errors may occur. Parchos de nidos se situaron en áreas abiertas por caidas de árboles; la cubierta del dosel en los parchos de nidos fué inferior que en los parchos no usados, y la densidad de tallos en los parchos de nidos fué menor que en los parchos no usados. 1983).

For Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Resources latest COVID-19 updates, Historically, Prothonotary warblers were a typical summer resident and breeding bird; found in forested swamps and riparian habitat in throughout the western part of Kentucky and reaching as far up the Ohio River as Louisville (Mengel 1965). Kentucky Warblers nest in forested regions in much of the East, preferring woodlands with a dense understory, often near streams or other wetlands. 1984.
