Connecticut Warbler

[Glenn Bartley]

I spent quite a few days in Riding Mountain National Park where there are a tonne of birds! But finding and photographing this little beauty was definitely the highlight of my time in that park. I'm sure you can imagine that I was pretty darn stoked to add this guy to my collection :)

All the best!

Wonderfull pose, light, BG, pose, perch, detail and comp. I like everything here to be honest. Congratulations!

Congrats Glenn great looking bird indeed, nice light, pose and details.. good BG too..

[Bryan Holliday]

Wow, Glenn! Most birders would give their right arm just to see this bird half as good as you have photographed it. I don't know if I would have even been able to keep the camera from shaking if I had this chance! What a great shot and a great experience.

[Judd Patterson]

Fantastic image Glenn! You are right, I do understand your excitement...I would have been completely stoked after finding and photographing a bird like this. Your control over the light is fantastic and the singing pose takes it over the top. Fine work once again!

[Fabs Forns]

Congrats on finding the bird and making a very pleasing image of it. I like your choice of DOF, forced by the light as I see :) very nice indeed.

Another great shot Glen. Colors andbackground very nice.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Very appealing image, Glen. Yes I'd be pretty stoked too!! Audio used, or a chance perching to this spot?

[Bill Dix]

Stoked indeed! I'd be thrilled just to see one. Pose, background, exposure all lovely. Handsomely done!

I like the pose with the open beak and the BG and sharp detail rocks. Well done Glenn.
