Résumé :	The Yellow-browed Warbler is the most frequent Siberian passerines in West Europe (some hundred records at each postbreeding migration). The French data having never been analysed, we present a brief synthesis of the available records in relation to phenology, geography and the trend in the time-period 1981-2007. The records are grouped around a peak in mid-October which is constant over time but migration varies according to annual numbers. A shift in autumn towards the south along the Atlantic coast fit the overall pattern observed elsewhere in Europe. A few records suggest another flyway along the Rhone Dcssin R Lovaty valley. The intensity of passage increased since 1981. We discuss the results in relation to existing references on orientation errors in migrants.
