1\/2500, f\/6.3, ISO 800, Canon 7D Mark II, Canon EF 500mm f\/4L IS II USM + EF 1.4 III Extender, not baited, set up or called in<\/em><\/p>\n I don’t remember if he was gleaning insects or sampling serviceberries (occasionally they do eat fruit) but like usual for warblers he was flitty and extremely difficult to catch in my viewfinder. Here he paused for long enough to give me several quick shots with a composition that works well\u00a0for me.<\/p>\n I like the variable light on the bird, the natural setting and the sharpness of the warbler. In some situations I might find the red and yellow splotches of color directly in front of the bird distracting but in this case I think they make the image more interesting and I like them a lot.
