Man these birds are so beautiful compared to their drab winter appearance. And they were everywhere the other day. I happened to catch this one while he was drinking some sap or pulling insects out of this tree.

EdV Goldmember  3,257 posts Joined Dec 2006 Location: Lehigh Valley, PA More info | I have to agree Bob. The Yellow-rumpeds (Myrtle) Warblers are very handsome birds. I don't know what it is but they seem to get bypassed with regularity here on the board. I posted a couple and getting comments was like pulling teeth. Same for a few others that I saw.

May 06, 2007 05:53 | #5 Thanks guys! Ed, I guess if warblers can't get people's attention I don't know what will! All I know is I'm happy with these shots. It's so tough to get warblers in good light, without being blocked by tons of leaves, branches, etc. I'll have to check yours out, I haven't seen them yet. Well, he stood still so long because he was feeding in that hole in the branch. That's the only way, otherwise, their about as flighty as all other warblers. RESPECTING NATURE while photographing it...
