Yellow-Rumped Warbler

Sitting right outside my home office window.


I wasn't going to get up and get the camera,
I was sure he would just fly off.
I enjoyed him for a minute and then I went for the camera,
I had to change the lens...surely he would be gone!!


But he wasn't, he stayed.
And as an added bonus, he posed!!
Don't you just love the white eye liner??

Sending out a big hug to my special friend Theresa at

Sometimes we get lucky when we wait for a moment like this. You didn't waste your time and captured it so lovely.

He is a good looking bird. I hope he comes back to visit you in his spring suit.

What an amazing opportunity! Those little guys hold still for no one but Debbie the Bird Whisperer. I've seen those little guys only briefly and at a distance. Thanks for the close-up. Prize winner!

A beauty for sure!

After a good dose of Halloween energy, light and pretty feels and looks really good. Better to have warblers at your window than ghosts! Either way, how do you get your work done!

Arija said...

He really must like you, I wonder if he will come again and pose for you. Great little guy and beautiful shots.
