The shot was taken with my Canon 50D and EF 100-400mm lens at about 15 feet. The only editing was with Picasa3 to crop, along with minor basic tweaking. As a 71 year old aspiring bird photographer, I thought I would post this image for comment from the more experienced members.   Jonathan

Thank you to all for your kind responses. The warbler migrations here came to an abrupt halt three weeks ago - only a few Kinglets showed briefly after that. This is a profile view of a different bird that was with it at the same time just a few feet away. Got lucky that day.  Jonathan
