Northern Parula (Setophaga americana) (1)
- Reported Jul 03, 2025 11:04 by Spencer Seale
- 7472–7668 Stanley Park Rd, Carpinteria US-CA (34.3980,-119.4516), Santa Barbara, California

- Comments: "While performing field work, I heard a buzzy, ascending trill that terminated with a sharp note—consistent with the song of a Northern Parula. I listened for several minutes and heard the song repeat multiple times, originating from a tall sycamore at the edge of riparian habitat. I did not have binoculars and was unable to visually confirm the bird, but based on my prior experience with this species, I feel confident identifying it by song alone. Coordinates: (34.39790, -119.45152)."
