Notes
Park Species Detail: RPT (STEVENS, ET AL, 1973/OLIVER, ET AL, 1978), Park Species Data Source: Checklist of Birds of North Cascades National Park Service Complex, Kuntz et al. 1999.
Update: The yellow warbler was split in 2025 into the northern yellow warbler (North American; Setophaga aestiva) that we get regularly in NOCA and the mangrove warbler (Mexico and South America; S. Petechia). Dendroica petechia is an old synonym.
