Habitat - North America is rich in Deciduous or Hardwood Forests. Most are found in regions with moderate rainfall and mild temperatures which are requirements for the spring growing season. These forests are usually dominated by a single tree species like sugar maple, alder, trembling aspen, magnolia, yellow poplar, black cottonwood, or an oak.
Most birds use this habitat during the spring and summer breeding seasons when leaves provide cover for nesting. Food, in the form of insects and seeds, is abundant. Some of the most colorful and beautiful songsters are found in this habitat.
