It’s been a while since I had any luck with Yellow Warblers but yesterday morning in the Wasatch Mountains this male came out to play for long enough that I got quite a few photos of him. Most of the time he was facing to his left which put those twigs directly behind his bill. But eventually he turned to his right and I like that better.<\/p>\n

While he was on this perch he made a few half-hearted attempts at singing but he clearly wasn’t into it. I have a theory as to why.<\/p>\n

His perch wasn’t high enough and conspicuous enough to make his performance the center of attention so he jumped (he didn’t fly, he just jumped) up to the highest perch available.<\/p>\n

From there he sang his little heart out.<\/p>\n

Up until I found this guy I’d been bird-skunked so he made my morning.<\/p>\n
