Cape May Warbler is not a very common migrant in south TX. A good year for me is to see more than one.

This guy hung around the parking lot at Paradise Pond in Port Aransas, TX for a couple of days and was definitely the highlight of a much poorer than normal migration. Overall number of migrants was down significantly compared to prior years. Hurricane Harvey destroyed a lot of the good habitat.

D850 with Tamron 150-600 at 600 mm, ISO 800, 1/2,500, and f6.3.

Thanks in advance for any criticism, comments, suggestions, etc.

This is lovely, Bruce. Very nice high key background which also complements the blossom the warbler is interested in. Well done!

This is so beautifully done, Bruce! A click on the image for the uncompressed view shows the exquisite detail you captured here, and the pose with the bird inspecting the blossom, is wonderful. This would make a gorgeous framed print!

Very nice high key shot. Great framing with the flower.
