Yellowthroat

This was taken around the same time as the last Yellowthroat image but slightly earlier when the light was better. I like the open beak and wish the diagonal stick was not there but the brush is their habitat...

Nice! Looks like someone is getting an earful.

Beautiful detail in the warbler, David, and I do like the open beak. The perch is very nice except for the crossing twig. Good work.

Very nice view of this yellowthroat David. Looks like some good light, and the open beak is indeed a plus. Yes, too bad about the stick, but I am jealous you are even getting shots of this species. I have seen only one in my life and that was about 40 years ago!

HI David
If they are looking at the stick, there missing the point. Great detail and color.

The stick is a bit of a bummer, but I also really like the open beak. I do wish he would have given you just a bit more head turn, but still works nicely. Good job David!
