Our Winter Warblers

Hi all,

Unlike some of you, we don't see many different kinds of Warblers here... not even during migrations. But we do have Butterbutts (Yellow-rumped Warblers)... Well at least 2 anyway, that stay with us thruout the winter months and for awhile into the spring. At this time of year these feisty little birds are amongst the first to arrive for breakfast, and they stay around nearly the whole day long until sunset.

Nice shots Kenn. Very close in with good detail.

super series, Kenn, we have a pair that winters w/ us here in central Oklahaoma

Really nice Kenn .great exposures and detail .

You did Myrtle proud Kenn an excellent series with beautiful natural detail... good to see warblers again... these little guys are the first warblers back to my ridge in the spring.

Very nice series Kenn, nice and sharp with lots of variety! Makes me miss my Pine Warbler from last year!

Very nice, I like the feather detail

Beautiful shots Kenn....these little warblers are so much fun to watch.

These are gorgeous, Kenn. No other word for it. My personal favourite would be #2, with all the others sharing the runner up position. Wow.

Another great set Kenn with awesome detail

Superb image quality, beautiful poses and BGs.

Great, sharp shots, Kenn. Now I wonder if I have them here in Peoria and have been passing them off as goldfinches in winter garb. Going to look closer. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks everybody, we really enjoy them everyday here this time of year.

ardeekay - These warblers are tiny like the goldies and might be mistaken for them I guess, especially in winter. Our Goldfinches are already starting to "yellow up" now tho especially on their heads... and the Butterbutt's breast markings and bright yellow rump are a dead giveaway to distinguish them.

great shots! all are very nice - with some great backgrounds!

Superb Images Kenn,
