The Yellow Warbler has always been a tough bird for me to photograph, due to their size and skittishness. I finally found a spot one really seemed to like and just waited him out. My wait was well rewarded. The light changed from fair to poor, but I was there to get shots of wild flowers anyway. :)

Thanks everyone, for the comments. I'm always thrilled to get a behavioral shot that tells something about the bird rather than just sitting in a tree, which doesn't happen often enough.
