I'm a male Chestnut-sided Warbler

I wear a yellow cap and have yellow and black wings

I have a chestnut stripe on each of my sides

I'm breeding, otherwise you'd see my eye rings.

I am a Chestnut-sided Warbler,
I've got a black mustache and a yellow forehead.
I have chestnut streaks across my wings,
And I say "Pleased to MEETCHA" when there's a girl to be courted.
