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.
Magnolia Warbler #169
This gem moved fast, almost too fast for me to follow… I’ll just have to go back and search it out again for better pics! Shown here in fall plumage.
Magnolia Warbler
Cape May Warbler
Hard to imagine these little birds fly all the way to the West Indies for the winter, I find it amazing. Generally to search for bugs on the edge of forests like this like one was, he was very busy and really didn’t hardly give me a glance.
Redstart Warbler
Yellow-rumped Warbler
Walking on the Bruce Peninsula, you never know what your going to find, it’s always an adventure.
Yellow Warbler
Saw this little fellow up on the Bruce Peninsula…
Yellow – right at home :)
Once I knew where to look for these little gems … it occurred to me to investigate the back of my farm, so off I went a little ways along Johnston’s Side Road and low and behold there in the wetland, was a flock of Yellow Warblers.
