Whitnall Park this morning was up and down with warbler species. Pockets of them, as probably the same as pockets of bugs present. No large numbers but things were hoping at times. Species I seen today were Yellow, Magnolia, American Redstarts, Wilson’s, Canada, Yellow-rumped, Common Yellowthroat, Black and White, Nashville, Blackburnian, Palm and Chestnut-sided. It was a cold cloudy day, with low 40’s, steady winds with light sleet at times. Felt like winter! Images were taken on May 14, 2016.

Superb pics especially with the dreary morning it was. Thanks again for sharing natures treasures!
How very beautiful Jim. Through your lens I get to see birds I would never see in our city backyard. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing, Jim. And please send those little beauties our way.
Love them all. I think the warblers passed me by this year. I have just heard a couple of the more common ones.
