You should be darn proud as this is a beautiful image Tom.

But I have a question. Your scientific name brings me to Yellow Warbler as does Google. So I'm guessing this is a sub-species? You can answer me here and I'll check back. ;)

A real eye-popper Tom. They are fabulous little warblers but like other warblers they never seem to sit still. Congratulations on this beauty!!!!

Good job Thomas; good picture of a neat bird. Where are you going to on the bay. I assume the far side of the bay from your marina? Is there good road access to that area?
