This guy was trying to build a nest in one of our bird feeders. He worked for several hours non-stop!

This is probably my best warbler shot yet, they are so hard to even get the camera pointed at them! I was bushwhacking through 7-8 foot shrubs at the edge of a pond for about 45min back and forth following him(her?).

That's a great story about the Wren Allan and even better captures!
The first image is fantastic with such an interesting "perch" and Wren activity.
Congrats on the Yellow too as you managed a wonderful capture on a tough little bird. Well done!
