Nice Blackcap, Resin. Warblers are difficult to photograph especially once all the leaves come out.

Also a nice Wilson's Warbler, tigerlily. I saw one last year sitting out in the open but as I raised my camera, it was gone.

Sometimes you get lucky. I have a small stretch of road that has ideal habitat on both sides that I sometimes just walk slowly back-and-forth for a couple of hours. Last week, all of a sudden, this Prairie Warbler appeared right in front of me. A few of my potentially better shots were blurred because at 500mm, I was too close to focus. I have always liked the Prairie Warblers.
