Early morning drives, pulling out of my driveway
Sometimes I have long drives to events and leave at dawn. The end of my drive way looks towards the Beaver Valley, I love it here.
Common Yellowthroat
These little birds move so quickly through the underbrush that they are very difficult to photograph. This pair were collecting insects and spiders to feed young which we could hear but not see. They must have been ferocious eaters because the parents wasted no time catching meals.
Can you find the warbler?
Yes… it’s in this photo as well!
Black-throated Blue Warbler
The beauties are found flitting around in the underbrush where they also nest. they don’t mind people passing by, if your inclined to stroll thru bug infested wetlands, you might be able to walk right up to one. 
American Woodcock #183
These interesting birds blend right in with the underbrush and old leaves found on the forest floor.
They are quiet and rarely seen, eating worms found under decaying leaves.
Warbler, Blackburnian #181
The only orange throated warbler in North America is named after Anna Blackburn, an English botanist. We rarely see them as they live high up in the tree tops eating bugs.
