Bay-Breasted Warbler posing.

This warbler was perched in the same tree as the Northern Parula I posted earlier. I did not have to move one step! Talk about killing two birds with one stone . It stayed in this same position for about 15-20 seconds, giving me some time to chimp the histogram and then shoot some more shots.

Both shots: 1/640, f8, ISO400, 400mm, -1/13 EC

Hi Dan,
nice catch, he gave you a nice pose. Sharp.
IMHO the lighting looks a little harsh. What time of day did you take the shot?
