The '''[[red warbler]]''' (''Cardellina rubra'') is a small bird of the [[New World warbler]] family, Parulidae. [[Endemism|Endemic]] to the highlands of Mexico north of the [[Isthmus of Tehuantepec]], it is closely related to the [[pink-headed warbler]] of southern Mexico and Guatemala. There are three [[subspecies]], which differ primarily in the shading of their ear patch and in the brightness and tone of their red body plumage. Young birds are pinkish-brown, with a whitish ear patch and two pale wingbars. Breeding typically occurs between February and May. The female lays three or four eggs in a domed nest, which she builds on the ground. Though she alone [[Egg incubation|incubates]] the eggs, both sexes feed the young and remove [[fecal sac]]s from the nest. The young [[fledge]] within eleven days of hatching. The red warbler is an [[insectivore]], [[Gleaning (birds)|gleaning]] primarily in [[understory]] shrubs. The species is not [[threatened species|threatened]], but its numbers are thought to be declining due to [[habitat destruction]]<!-- conform with article lead -->. {{TFAFULL|Red warbler}}
