Another shot taken during Labor Day weekend. It's puzzling how many bird photos I get with the 100-400mm L, yet I often strike out on much longer outtings with the 500mm f/4. Go figure...

Excellent shot Dave... I think it is quite interesting that we are seeing warblers almost at the same time... I was watching a Magnolia and a Blue-headed Vireo yesterday in the same tree.

Excellent shot Dave. I had 6 species of warblers go through here two years ago, but none since then. I keep hoping to see some. :)

Man, I wish I could spend more time looking for warblers. You have a nice picture here.

Maybe the big bazooka scares them off :)

db - the Warblers are definitely on the move right now, hopefully I get some more shots before they all vanish for the rest of the year.

Thanks Mitch. Put up a mist net, you never know what you'll drag in ;)

Thanks Judy. The best migration spot in northern Jersey is generally Garret Mountain reservation in West Patterson. I did well there this Spring.

Thanks Mao. I wasn't even looking for Warblers when I shot this and the BTG Warbler. I actually had a 24-70mm mounted but luckily had the wits to switch off before the birds were gone.

thanks skeeter, I do invest a lot of time outdoors to get a variety.

Very pretty shot Dave,

We saw very few Warblers this Spring... and never a Magnolia. Sure hope more will pass thru here soon.

Thanks Kenn. Any warbler's a good warbler!

Thanks TT. I didn't have too many looks at this one until it got bored and left.

Thanks Steve. Unfortunately we are having a very raining past couple of weeks here, not to mention a very rainy year overall. Really hinders nature photography.

Thanks Norman, I cropped out some ugly branches on this one.

Nice catch and good shot, Dave. The warblers are on the move around here as well. So many birds, so little time. :)
