Blackburnian Warbler & Northern Waterthrush

Normally, starting in mid-August, I am visited by large mixed flocks of warblers and other passerines migrating through our property. This year, for whatever reason, they have largely failed me. Others, east and west of me, have been seeing them, but I have been overall skunked. I did manage a couple shots over the last several days of two nifty species, but that's been about it. Here are a Blackburnian Warbler and a Northern Waterthrush.

Very nice.

Great detail and color .....that lens /body combo really nails it especially in image #1

Nice shots, Al! The warbler migration is one thing I really miss about the Midwest.

Thank you, Clipper. I too am very happy with my lens and body.

Thank you. We have 25 species that can reliably be seen in our neck of the woods. Most I've photographed on our property, but I'm still missing one or two.
