Pine Warbler

Armed with a bit more confidence again, I tried another warbler shot as we were leaving our banding site. Sometimes you forget about these guys until their numbers appear again in the Winter. They are residents, for the most part, but usually stay high in the trees and when the Spring returns they are harder to spot.

You get a bit confused when you suddenly see a Pine Warbler. Most birds with yellow on them are migrating through.



Then you get the "Oh, yeah." moment and they are quickly gone. Some males get so yellow it is blinding.
