Birding Boy

Did you hear it sing? Certainly looks like a Willow/Alder but given both occur at that location it's impossible to say without hearing it.

Disappeared last night an hour before sunset, and hasn't been found this morning... Michigan's 2nd this year and as usual a 1 day wonder

Ooo nice one

Luck mainly, and just taking a ton of photos, wish I had a secret I could share 😅I watched this guy move around the relatively clear interior of a brightly lit bush and waited for him to land on a branch in the open for like 10 seconds, which seems like an eternity when it comes to warblers, but it worked for me. Also, the fact that I've taken like 80% of my good photos this spring at Tawas Pt. State Park, where there's a big concentration of migrants at the tip allowing for amazing photo opportunities, helps a bit 😂

Stunning!

This is actually my first somewhat decent Yellow Warbler shot, surprisingly ML576805351 Yellow Warbler (Northern) Macaulay Library

Nice list! Somewhat sad to see all the hybridization, but man, Lawrence's is a cool looking bird
