Black-throated Green

Gallery: AvianPosted October 19, 2011164 views4 comments

This Black-throated Green Warbler was taken about a month ago just as these guys were starting to depart from Vermont.

This is a pretty good size crop and some IQ lost in the larger version, but I like the bird in habitat and thought I'd post it.

Thanks for looking.

I like this as presented. The light, position, and setting work together to give this a very natural feel.

Lovely image, I like how the Warbler is framed by the leaves. Nice composition and colors.

I saw my first black-throated green this weekend right after the Hooded Warbler and they are a real treat. I like the habitat and colors however the larger version the bird looks heavily over sharpened.
