male Common Yellowthroat

Hey everybody,

I’ve been shooting a lot this spring, but it has been almost exclusively landscapes. I haven’t been giving bird and wildlife subjects too much time lately. So, I took a visit to Huntley Meadows in Alexandria, Virginia, where I photographed this striking male Common Yellowthroat. I have very little experience shooting songbirds and warblers, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what I can do over the next few weeks.

    This is an awesome start Alex. Great light and background in this one.

  • Awseome shot for someone who claims having little experience! Im looking foward to your next warbler shot, you have set the bar pretty high with this one ;)

    Josh,

    Thanks. I’m gonna focus on it a lot over the next few weeks.

    Dominic,

    Thank you as well. I guess I could revise that statement. I don’t have much experience shooting songbirds, warblers especially, but I do have an okay understanding of the technical aspects of how to make a decent bird on a stick shot. I hope that statement doesn’t make me sound cocky, haha. I doubt I can top this, though. Not this year.
