According to All About Birds, the MacGillivray’s warbler is  found in dense thicket, shrubbery, willows, or low tangles along wooded streams. 

The oldest recorded MacGillivray's warbler was a male of about four years old. 

It was found during banding operations in Oregon, and then re-released.

John James Audubon named it for his friend and editor, William MacGillivray, a Scottish naturalist.
