Semper's Warbler

The bird is about 14.5 centimetres in length. The plumage of the adults is dark gray at the upperparts and greyish white at the underparts. The immatures are brownish-grey above and have buffish underparts, and the long legs are pale yellow. It lives in the undergrowth of montane and elfin forests. The call consists of tuck-tick-tick-tuck noises. Nothing is known about its ecology but it is probably a ground-nesting bird.

The Semper's Warbler is classified as Critically Endangered (CR), facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild.

Semper's Warbler, all of which can exceed 15 cm (6 in) and 21 grams, could be considered the largest. The migratory species tend to lay larger clutches of eggs, typically up to six, since the hazards of their journeys mean that many individuals will have only one chance to breed. In contrast, two eggs is typical for many tropical species, since the chicks can be provided with better care, and the adults are likely to have further opportunities for reproduction. More

Semper's Warbler was an ashy grey denizen of the undergrowth. Once common, the only remnants of the bird are a few skins preserved in North American museums.

list of endemic birds, the Semper's warbler, which may be the dullest tropical bird on Earth. It is notable not for its plumage (which is the color of oatmeal, and as exciting) or its song (which no one has ever described or recorded), but solely for its rarity.

Semper's warbler is about five inches long and gray - dishwater gray, battleship gray, old-movie gray. Dull, bland, flat; even the adjectives that best describe it are monosyllabic and boring.

And yet, despite its lackluster appearance, birders have been combing St. More
