We encountered 4 different Magnolia's over the course of 3 days until we encountered this relatively cooperative bird. While he did not take the staged perch, he did occasionally creep out on the tree branch giving a clean shot with a nice grass bg. Day 3 PM shoot, 1Dx2, 840mm, f/5.6, 1/500, iso 3200, Allegany State Park, NY. This was the first time I realized how usable and clean iso 3200 is. A real game changer. Good-bye flash (for the most part at least)

very nice, these birds can be hard! I found 12 the other day and not a single one would play ball.

Nice colors and perch. Unrelievedly camera work at ISO 3200!

Your warblers are so well done, and this is no exception. Great colors on this one!
