Warbler still no pos ID yet??

GraphyFotoz

Here I did a lil better crop and fixed the pic a bit.
Not the best pic but I got the shot while I could.
It didn't hang around but for about 5 seconds! :dunno

ANYONE positively ID it?
I still say it's a Blackburnian? :scratch

Hi, Graphy

Great shot

have you looked here. The only shot of a female they have is a first year bird so the markings may not be completely developed.

I have not looked at all of them, but I have not found another as closely marked as the the Blackburnian so I guess thumb It probably is...

Given the quality of some of the photos there I often wonder why they don't update them with better shots


Cheers

I can't help you with the ID but still like to motivate you by saying that this is a beautiful capture of a beautiful bird. Well done.

Thanks for sharing.

Dick.

Thanx Stan!
Mine does most resemble the female but more bright yella on the head than normal.
I see what ya mean about the pics and I thought mine wasn't the best....eshhhhhh!

You might want to see if there is a local chapter of the Audubon Society near you. I'm sure they would be glad to help you ID this warbler.

It's a great capture. Warblers are hard to photograph!

I'll give my vote to the Blackburnian as well.

Thanx Guys!

I'm planning on a trip to Cornell's Ornithology Lab soon for some real nice bird shots!

My last trip which was a few years ago yeilded this shot.
I had a crappy point and shoot then.
I sold a copy of this pic shortly after taking it.
Can't imagine what shots I could get now that I have a REAL camera and glass!
