Camera Critters #267

For many years, I have tried to get a good image of an Orange-crowned Warbler. It's not that it is a hard to find bird, it's just never in a good spot for me to get a good shot. Plus...the bird won't hold still long enough for my camera to focus on it.

But earlier this week, I was able to find one in the apple tree in my back yard and was able to put camera to it and snap off about 100 shots. I figured at least one of the shots had to be good.

Well, I got two good shots...plus a number of decent shots.

We have had some wonderful weather in the Pacific Northwest.  I know it won’t last long…at least it won’t for now…but it is a sign that the seasons are changing.

Another sign is the arrival of the warblers.  I have seen Orange-crowned Warblers, but recently, there have been a lot of Yellow-rumped Warblers flying around…including this one photographed in my backyard.

It is warbler migratory time.

I know…I saw a warbler in my apple tree.



It’s a Yellow Warbler.

It’s always a nice time for a photographer when the birds are migrating.  I see a better variety of birds in the spring than I do throughout the summer.

Earlier this week, I got some good photos of a bird which has eluded me in the past.


The Wilson’s Warbler is an active little bird, but this one gave me good looks and time for a decent photo.
