rpbw Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 While photographing the spring warblers in the backyard this afternoon, April 20, this bird landed on a branch in the wooded area just beyond the back fence. He stayed several minutes before flying off. I have several water sources and feeders in the yard. I am in Kendall County, Texas, northwest of San Antonio. Until a couple days ago we had been without much rain for months and I have been seeing a number of migrating warblers return over multiple days to drink and bathe. I think it might be a Northern or Louisiana Waterthrush but I'm not even sure they get to this area. The light in the woods wasn't bright so I did remove some noise from the photos. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWM Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Northern Waterthrush, LA would have less streaking on throat I believe. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
