plural pileolated warblers

  1. A bird of subspecies Cardellina pusilla piliolata.

    The Pileolated Warbler — so like our Wilson Blackcap, but of a brighter yellow — never became common, and yet in every list of birds we made, whether of upland, marsh, cactus desert, barranca, or tropical jungle, he was sure to have a place.
