Yellow-throated Warbler 2

[Bill Dix]

This is the only "rare" warbler I've gotten this year -- or at least one that's uncommon in our area. I posted another frame of him back in April. Like nuthatches, he has a habit of perching upside down as he gleans the tree trunk. The light was starting to get bright by the time I got this frame, but I liked the pose.

Excellent catch on the nuthatch-like pose. Great warbler to photograph. I like how you handled the shadows.

Thats different Bill ! An upside down Warbler indeed. I like the composition on this but can,treally explain why. !
Great stuff anyway

What a fun image and pose, esp the way the bird is looking down. Comp works well!

[Karl Egressy]

Great finding and it shows the field mark yellow throat pretty good, Bill.

Unique capture of this beautiful rare visitor. I think you handled the light very well.
