Migrating Warblers

This morning I went to Riverbend Park to do some more bird watching. As with other recent park visits, I saw lots and lots of birds I’ve already photographed. I did see two warblers that I’d not seen or photographed before. After doing some research to find out what birds they were, I found that they are both warblers who are migrating north and stop in the park on their way. The new birds are:

#40 Yellow-rumped Warbler
Yellow-rumpedWarbler
#41 Palm Warbler
PalmWarbler

New Birds

Today I went on a bird watching walk with a naturalists from The Nature Conservancy. There were about 15 people who signed up for the walk. We saw lots of birds…many of them I’ve seen and photographed before. Here are three new birds I saw and photographed today. The birds are quite small in the photos. I really do need a bigger lens to get better pictures. Who wants to buy me a new lens?
