Visited my go-to spot for Prairie Warblers today and was not disappointed - though I wasn't there at an optimal time of day and activity was diminished over what it is during the morning. Still happy with this image

f/7.1
1/1600s
ISO 500

Cropped to 75%, minor adjustments in CS5 on 27" iMac

He is very handsome and I like the detail as best seen in the larger view. I also like the OOF pine needles that break up the solid blue sky.

Nice capture. I would play with selectively brightening the warbler a bit to make it pop.

Very nice. I miss the migration of all the eastern warblers like this.
