A handsome, colorful warbler in lovely soft lighting. The background habitat works very nicely being out of focus. Well done, Paul.

Fantastic shot of this beautiful bird. The bird really pops against the background. Superb!

Thanks for commenting on my photo.

A little beauty and such a lovely colour, complemented so well by that soft green foliage!

Sweet shot, Paul- these birds are rarely seen here. Nicely placed in the frame with good habitat/background.

Living on a peninsula tip on Northern Lake Huron I have found a dense brushy area about 200 yards from my home where at least 2 Wilson's Warblers stop for a few days around May 19-23 the last few years.  Very few nest in the Eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan, but I can always find them. During late summer southbound migrating in late August and September I always find a few on the peninsula.

Nice little cutie. Paul, I would try bring little more brightness or exposure just a hair to the bird and really show the yellow color.
