    Default Chestnut-sided Warbler

    Captured this image yesterday at a local wildlife preserve. A few days ago Bill Dix had posted an image of this CSWA on BPN. I asked him for the location. Being a tough bird for me to capture I went to the spot, and as soon as I go out of the car this CSWA started a conversation with me. C&C welcome.

    Hi Geoffrey,
    Lovely warbler and agree a very tough one to catch. Focus and exposure look good. Well done. Light diagonal branch in BG is a bit distracting but I realize you had to shoot him where you found him.

    Well captured Geoffrey and a lovely looking bird. You have good detail on the bird and I like the pose you got. Just wondering if less contrast over the whole image may tone down the slight harshness, I am seeing on my screen (iMac 5K)
