Yellow-rumped Warbler

I am not very good at IDing these little birds. Photographed last Monday at Point Reyes National Seashore, CA.

Thanks for looking. JR

I'm no warbler expert but it looks like a Yellow-Rumped Warbler to me. Like the pose and eye contact. BG is terrific, although I might even out the RLC. I only wish the bird were on the other side of the perch, but that's a relatively minor issue. Overall very nice!

I agree with Doug on the ID. I like details and eye contact and would give it more space. I wish we could see more of the tail.

I think you did a nice job with the DOF and I love that background! I'm seeing these yellow-rumps in my yard, daily, now. While they don't eat seed from the feeders, they are curious and socialble, always trying to see what is going on, when all the other yard birds, visit the feeders. They love the bird baths and mister.

Nice and sharp and the BG looks great.

I think stepping over to the left would have gotten rid of the perch/body merge.

Thank you all for taking the time to comment and the ID!

And thanks for whoever corrected the title of my posting... :)
