I took my brother Jeff out to look for warblies once (yes, once), we, or more accurately, I saw one Yellow-rumped Warbler, that was it, nothing else to be found, go figure. Jeff couldn't locate it and didn't believe me. I need to get the family to go to the Magee Marsh boardwalk next May, then maybe, just maybe, they will understand the May-hem of May Warbler Madness that we all know and love so well.
This was my ONLY shot from 2007. The first Wilson's I saw was in 2005...in Panama!
This was number two on the Wilson's Warbler Countdown...2006...Magee Marsh International Migratory Bird Day, the day I discovered the joys of bird butt photography!
Here's the latest 'Birds from Behind' pose. I think after a few years of struggling with trying to get good shots of the front, I have surrendered to my natural talent...Photo-Booty Man.
Little gems!
ReplyDeleteHi Dave,

Reminds me of last week,when my car got,as we say over here,arse ended (correct spelling!).
ReplyDeleteThese knock spots off the Warblers we get in Wales,have you ever thought about pishing so they turn around?
Chris: Maybe you should keep a drink next to your computer.
ReplyDeleteSid: I've tried pishing in the bushes. Maybe I'm doing it wrong...
