Excerpts Adapted from the Birds of Saskatchewan:
Almost never seen out in the open, but obvious due to its loud song, the Connecticut Warbler is a master of stealth as it skulks in heavy undergrowth. The Connecticut breeds in a narrow band from east-central British Columbia to west-central Quebec, south to northern Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. It winters from northern Venezuela to Central Brazil (Godfrey 1986).
In Saskatchewan breeding habitat is extremely variable, primarily choosing the more open and mature aspen stands (Smith 1996). Tamarack-black spruce bogs, a markedly different habitat, are also used (Houston and Anaka 2003).
The Connecticut Warbler is uncommon in the southern portion of the southern boreal region, and uncommon and local in the parkland region (Eagle and Touchwood Hills and eastern Qu'Appelle Valley) (Smith 1996). As a migrant it occurs rarely as far west as Kindersley and as far south as Estevan, "suggesting that it is yet another [warbler] that migrates mainly via Manitoba? (Smith 1996).
