Vermivora chrysoptera
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Great Smoky Mountains National Park, aggregated onto a 25 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.
Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
Records exist for April, May, June, July and September, with the widest coverage in April and May. A quiet month can mean the animal was absent, or that nobody was looking.
A grid cell is a square of the map, not a sighting: 2 squares of 25 km carry records for Golden-winged Warbler in and around Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and the 768 records behind them were collected by other people and published openly. Nothing here counts animals, and a place with more records is not always a place with more animals.
Arenal, Monteverde and Manuel Antonio are the three atlas places where the Golden-winged Warbler is recorded. Its records concentrate in the United States, Costa Rica, Canada, Panama and Nicaragua, with the map showing where these observations gather. The atlas holds about 143,000 records of this bird from nine countries.
