What kind of bird?
« on: May 10, 2008, 09:19:15 PM »
This little guy came in during my calling stand this morning. I was messing with a half dozen blue jays with some jay distress. Sorry for the poor quality. I don't know that I have seen one of these before. It was small like a finch.

Male black-throated gray warbler.  Great picture, thanks for sharing! 
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Thanks.
After doing some searching for the "warbler" I did notice that mine seems to have more of a blue shade then the photos I found online. I wish I had a clearer photo. :bash:

Warblers are really tough to photograph - that one is a good photo considering the subject matter.  They love the canopy, and rarely stay still.

LOL..yea, that thing was bouncing all over. I took about 6 photos but that was the best. Then there is the thin branch/twigs to contend with.
