Information about the Ovenbird:

The Ovenbird is a smallish songbird belonging to the New World warbler family. These birds breed in mature and mixed deciduous forests of North America, across Canada and into the Eastern US. They migrate during the winter to the Southeastern US, Mexico and into South America. Ovenbirds forage for food on the ground in leaf litter, where it looks for insects. The bird gets it's name from the ground based nests it builds, which are domed with a side entrance and woven from vegetation which somewhat resembles a Dutch oven.
