Common Yellowthroat

Picture like this is hard to plan for, a bird about to catch a fly. I was taking pictures of this Common Yellowthroat as it moved from shrub to shrub, giving me second or two to take its picture. In this case I was taking pictures as it was perched, it took to the air. It was still in my camera's view as I was clicking away, got the picture just as its about to catch the fly in the air. 

Until next moment,

Common Yellowthroat

It was  a sunny morning, walking on a trail along side Warner Stables. Going back and forth on a 80 to 90 meter section. Walking slower when the sun was behind me, taking pictures of birds with the morning light on them. The birds I kept seeing were Red winged Blackbirds, Song Sparrows and Common Yellowthroats. I was concentrating on the yellowthroats, as they were staying near me and letting me take the pictures I wanted. 

 I have on several occasions taken pictures of yellowthroats, but always wanted to catch them in different positions. That morning I was able to catch one Common Yellowthroat singing away, I imagined it was saying good-morning.

Until next moment,
