Wilson's Warbler (Series)

Last week I was bemoaning the fact that I hadn't seen many warblers in this year's spring migration in the parks where I am used to find them. Then one morning I looked out my bedroom window and spotted a Wilson's Warbler in my Pieris bush. After that, they appeared in every bush and tree around my house for a few days, occasionally popping out so that I could take a few photos. This lasted for about a week and now they seem to have passed through (I spoke too soon -- I'm watching one now in my holly tree as I eat breakfast, May 27th). To get an idea of the size of the little bird, I measured the length of the Camelia leaves seen in the last two photos to be about 4 inches.
