     Only an expert can tell! 😉 Generally, a fall warbler.

     Thank you, Cindy. These little ones telegraph there whereabouts by “chip-chipping” their way through the thickets. It’s a wonder that they don’t all get eaten by predators! Can’t quite figure out the evolutionary advantage to that behavior. 😉

   My name being a bird, I always like photos of their sweet and cheery creatures. Smiles, Robin

   Is that a painting or a photo> Or a photo or a painting? At any rate, it is “picture perfect” and oh, so sweet.

     Thank you, Dor. Definitely a photo, as I’m a horrible painter! 😉

   So difficult to capture a warbler yet you have succeeded this amazing feat! I have been watching one flit about my bird bath. Not sure what kind – lean towards a female yellowthroat which is what you might have here as well – but, only an expert can tell! 😉

     Yes, I don’t even bother to try with the fall warblers, so many look similar. I was lucky to capture this one – it seemed very interested in me, so it must have been a young one. The adults don’t give you a second look – gone!

    What a great shot, Eliza! They are hard to get, those warblers, constantly moving and hiding behind leaves, yet you were able to get a clear, perfect shot with beautiful framing as well. Nice!

      Thank you, Mary. It was a lucky chance. When I saw her in an open spot, I just snapped over and over, hoping I’d get a decent shot before she flew off seconds later. Only two were decent!

        Yeah, I find it takes hundreds to get a few good ones, but I enjoy taking them so much, it doesn’t matter. That is what I love about digital. I’m not limited to a roll. I love not having that limit and taking as many as I want! It is soooo freeing!
      • Eliza Waters says:

        September 1, 2015 at 12:05 pm

        Agreed. How did we manage to wait a week for the photos to get back from the processor to find out what we had captured? I love the now-instant gratification! 😉

        I know! It’s like coming back to the computer, downloading and voila! Christmas morning!

        😀 Exactly!
