This guy lingered for a record late date recently here in Ottawa. No Blackpoll Warbler had ever been recorded as late as November...this one had been observed daily this month, but last seen Nov. 15th, with this image taken on the 14th - I'd say I was just in time seeing (and photographing) it! Assuming it's migratory instinct finally took over (as opposed to death), I'm hoping it will make it down to South America safe and sound!
I do wish for a better BG on the right half of the image, but I am really happy with the perfect pose it offered me here :).
Canon 40D + 100-400L @400mm, aperture priority, evaluative metering, 1/200s., f/6.3, ISO 640, +0.7 EC, natural light, handheld, just about FF.
