I was amazed yesteday that I got some really nice shots ....FINALLY.....of a couple Myrtle Warblers!

The first 3 are all the same bird.

I may play with the cropping some more. Not sure I am satisfied yet!

This is warbler #2. I didn't even see it at first...and it was right in front of me!

It clearly didn't seem to notice me either.....

I just love moments like this. This makes all the bad shots worth it.

It finally noticed me and flew to another branch. I got one last shot before it was gone.

WOWSERS Nanny!! You certainly got some beautiful photos-see, your patience paid off! Fantastic photos!!!!

Gorgeous shots of an adorable bird! They're so hard to get good photos of, since they hang out in trees/shrubs that make it tough to get a good focus lock on the bird rather than on some random leaf!

Great job nanny!

Well thank you!

You are right Critter, I have lots of photos of them but most are not very sharp & clear!

Lovely!

Love the butterbutts. Pretty sure that's what I had at the stream on Sunday, but I didn't have my glasses or camera, so I wasn't really sure. Anyway, I've decided to be defiant and continue to call them Butter Butts, or perhaps "eastern butter butts"

LOL!!!

Great set of the Myrtles nanny! One good one is all that's needed...Ive had 500shots before and about 30 were keeper's. Maybe 5 of those were tac sharp.

Wonderful shots Nanny, successful shots like that, make all effort worth while. I agree with Burd, lots and lots of bad one, before a good one come along. Congrat.

Great shots, Nanny. Photographing birds in trees or shrubs is a really hard task and you've done brilliantly.

your comments are all so kind...I always say a 'thank you' to mother nature when something really good comes together like these photos.
