Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

For such a tough bird to get in the open, there are quite a few uploads of this species which is great. They have such a great song. Iona, Richmond, BC.

It was a bit strange but expected to see this species in the company of so many other exotic warblers. Madera Canyon, Arizona.

Got lucky with this striking species. It took some time to get the settings right with heavy shadows from the large trees. Madera Canyon.

A few photos didn't work as planned. Hillside that was not easy to walk on, along with quite a lot of hiker traffic made this session tricky. Completely missed the Olive Warbler. Madera Canyon.
