17 Yellow Birds in Nova Scotia (ID and Song Guide)

Yellow birds are common in Nova Scotia in spring and summer when the warblers arrive, but in winter, only the American Goldfinch is a commonly spotted yellow bird here. 

This guide will help you identify yellow birds in Nova Scotia that you have spotted by giving you pictures, identification information, song recordings, and when they migrate in and out.

Most yellow birds in Nova Scotia are warblers, finches, or orioles, and sometimes they are female birds that look very different from the male of their species.

Identifying yellow birds will be a lot easier with all the information in this guide. I have listed these yellow birds in the order of which are most commonly spotted in Nova Scotia according to ebird checklists in spring and summer (May and June).

Yellow birds in Nova Scotia all year: American Goldfinch, Evening Grosbeak, Eastern Meadowlark
Yellow birds in Nova Scotia in summer: Yellow-rumped Warbler, Common Yellowthroat, Yellow Warbler, Cedar Waxwing, American Redstart, Black-throated Green Warbler, Magnolia Warbler, Palm Warbler, Nashville Warbler, Canada Warbler
Yellow birds in Nova Scotia during migration: Baltimore Oriole, Wilson’s Warbler, Cape May Warbler, Orange-crowned Warbler

So read on to identify those yellow birds you have spotted.

17 Yellow Birds In Nova Scotia:

1. American Goldfinch

American Goldfinches are spotted all year in Nova Scotia, but their numbers increase during the breeding season from April to September. They are recorded in 49% of summer checklists and 31% of winter checklists submitted by bird watchers for the province.

American Goldfinches are popular birds. The males have bright yellow and black coloring in spring. The females are duller brown, as are males in winter.

• Spinus tristis
• Length: 4.3-5.1 in (11-13 cm)
• Weight: 0.4-0.7 oz (11-20 g)
• Wingspan: 7.5-8.7 in (19-22 cm)

American Goldfinches can be found in most of North America and are usually resident all year. However, those that breed in Canada and the Midwest migrate to the southern US States for winter.

You can find American Goldfinch in weedy fields and overgrown areas foraging for sunflower, thistle, and aster plants. They are also common in suburbs, parks, and backyards.

American Goldfinch Song:

Nests of American Goldfinches are usually located in saplings or shrubs. They are made of grass, bark strips, and feathers on which the female lays four to six eggs. It takes ten to twelve days for the eggs to hatch, and while the male feeds the female, she incubates the eggs.

Attract American Goldfinches to your backyard by planting thistles and milkweed. They will visit most bird feeders and prefer sunflower seed and nyjer seed. 

Fun Fact: Brown-headed Cowbirds are known for laying eggs in an American Goldfinch nest, but unfortunately, the seed-based diet that the parents feed them is unsuitable for them, and they eventually die.

2. Yellow-rumped Warbler

Yellow-rumped Warblers can be spotted during the breeding season in Nova Scotia, but their numbers increase during migration from May to June and from September to October. They are recorded in 26% of summer checklists and up to 41% of checklists during migrations.

Yellow-rumped Warblers are gray with flashes of yellow on the face, sides, and rump and white in the wings.

Females may be slightly brown, and winter birds are paler brown with bright yellow rumps and sides turning bright yellow and gray again in spring.

They can be seen in the Midwest during migration before overwintering in southern and southwestern US states and the Pacific Coast, and into Mexico and Central America.

You can find Yellow-rumped Warblers in coniferous forests, especially during the breeding season. During winter, they can be found in open areas with fruiting shrubs. In summer, they eat mostly insects and on migration, and in winter, they eat mostly fruit, including bayberry and wax myrtle. 

Yellow-rumped Warbler Song:

Nests of Yellow-rumped Warblers are made by females in conifer trees from twigs, pine needles, and grass and lined with soft grass, moss, and hair. They lay up to six eggs which take around two weeks to hatch and a further two weeks to leave the nest.

Common Yellowthroat Song:

Nests of Common Yellowthroats are built by females near the ground in marshy areas and supported by reeds. The nest is made from grass and sedges supported on a platform of leaves and grass. They lay up to six eggs which take around twelve days to hatch and the same for the young to leave the nest.

Attract Common Yellowthroats to large backyards with dense vegetation and native plants to attract insects.

Fun Fact: The black mask of Common Yellowthroats is a sign to courting males that that bird is male, and they attack when fake birds are used, but they do not attack when the bird has no mask.

4. Yellow Warbler
