Warm afternoon spent watching and taking pictures of Yellow-rumped Warblers. They were busy catching insects, while I quickly reacted when they perched for second or two. They got more and more comfortable and got closer to me, the more I stood still in one area. Giving me a chance of getting better pictures.
Until next moment,

Photography serves so many parts of my life, but my favorite is letting me see parts of nature I would not otherwise see. Most if not all of us know many birds like to eating insects, I particularly like when the birds are flying and trying to catch flies. Few weeks back I was trying to take pictures of Yellow rumped Warblers flying all around me, catching flies I was having problem seeing. Taking pictures of them perched, not a problem. Getting images while they are flying, challenge increases but possible. But I never thought I would get a picture of one just about to catch a fly, but I got one. I was very excited about that image, but few days later I got even a better one.

After spending the early morning taking pictures of 93 North in Banff National Park, I then found an area for place to take pictures of fall colours. It was a cool morning, temperature as low as minus three, leaves were falling off the trees under the sunlight. The warm light was also melting away the heavy frost that covered all that was around me.
Temperature was starting to go up as I walked around small wetland created by Rampart Creek, quickly two coyotes ran by. Not able to get a clear picture, as they were on a quick move. Decided to post this out of focus picture, which seems to give a better sense the speed they were moving with.
Soon my eyes turned toward the birds that were coming into the area. Few Yellow rumped Warblers, two White throated Sparrows and also sighted a Northern Harrier.
It was a fun morning, after resting and having a snack, took more pictures of the fall colours and made my way home.
