"Alright Mr Jackson, I'm ready for my close-up." A different take on 'a bird's eye view,' and a more typical portrait shot, of the Common Whitethroat. Taken on different days in early May but in the same area at Brandon Marsh near Coventry, these pics may feature the same individual, who was kind enough to give me a couple of brief photo opportunities.

A branching twig with leaves and clusters of blossom, on which is perched a Whitethroat, facing to the left. The head, upperparts and wings are brown, the undersides whitish, and yes, the throat is white.

The acrobatic harvest of a Townsend’s Warbler.

Besides the lovely juvenile chiffchaff (one of previous posts) I saw a Icterine Warbler this morning. Took some time and searching before I could actually see it. It loves to hide high in a tree and sing.

It's cold today (in the 60s), so the birds are coming to the feeders, as they have babies to feed and the insects are not very active.

I have heard this yellow throated warbler sing every morning outside my window, but it has not come to the feeders infrequently. It is a small gray bird, with black and white accents and a bright yellow throat.
The adult red bellied woodpecker was being pursued by its fledgling, who was begging for food.
This is the fledgling red bellied woodpecker. It is larger than its parent and endlessly harasses it for food. Finally, I saw the adult drive the baby away by diving on it.

This pretty Hooded Warbler my wife and I saw earlier this month in Halifax County, NC met both of our most valued warbler encounter goals: 1) sang prolifically 2) ignored us completely.





A Hooded Warbler perches on a branch facing right. The bird's face is bright golden yellow and features a deep black eye. There is a dark smudge between the eye and the base of the bill which is long, narrow, and very dark. The top of the head and throat are black, and each section meets via a line of black from the top of the head down to the throat. The bird's back is olive green. It's belly is yellow, perhaps a tad darker than the yellow on the face. Only one leg is visible and it is flesh-colored. A few scattered branches are entering the image from each side. The background is a mixture of greens and blues.

    Audubon's warbler (I think), fuzzy because shot in low light rain across a river and it was very busy hunting for bugs, near the Cheakamus falls https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audubon%27s_warbler

    A few migratory warblers in la Cienaga de Zapata, Cuba, taken in March. The Black-throated Blue, Northern Parula and American Redstart were probably almost ready to migrate north at that time.

    "Northern Parulas are small wood-warblers with a short tail and a thin, pointy bill. They are plump little warblers about the size of a kinglet. Adult male Northern Parulas [like this one] are bluish gray overall with a yellow-green patch on the back and 2 white wingbars. A chestnut band separates the male's bright yellow throat and chest. Adult females are a bit paler and typically lack the male's breast band. Males and females have distinctive white eye crescents. Immature birds are paler than adults and lack the chestnut breast band." (AllAboitBirds).
    The American Redstart warbler is "a medium-sized warbler with a relatively wide, flat bill and fairly long, expressive tail. In flight it has a deep chest, slim belly, and long, somewhat club-shaped tail. Adult male American Redstarts [like this one] are mostly black with bright orange patches on the sides, wings, and tail. The belly is white. Females and immature males replace the orange with yellow or yellow-orange. They have gray head and underparts, with olive back and wings and dark-gray tail.

    "Black-throated Blue Warblers are small, well-proportioned birds with sharp, pointed bills. Compared with other warblers, they are fairly large and plump. Males are midnight blue above and white below with black on the throat, face, and sides. Females are plain grayish olive overall, although some individuals have blue tints on the wings and tail. Both sexes have a characteristic small white square on the wing, sometimes called a “pocket handkerchief.” (AllAboutBirds).

    A Prothonotary Warbler pretends to be a woodpecker as it inspects a potential nest cavity. Careful research has shown a million encounters with this warbler is insufficient for most humans.





    A Prothonotary Warbler perches on a tree. The bird is perched vertically, like a woodpecker. It's attending a hole in a birch tree. The bird has a golden-yellow head and a silver gray wings. Its eye is very black and really stands out on the golden face. The left side of the image is dominated by a blue sky background, but a few blurry branches are visible.
