Northern Parula
We were very lucky to have several Northern Parulas visit the North Bay this year. They are a rare Warbler in our parts. I spent several occasions photographing this adult male that stayed for a month plus! I favored the morning overcast light but wanted to try the evening light. In this shot I was waiting for this fella to come down. He stayed high mostly that late afternoon. About seven o'clock he perched right in this small pocket of light point blank eye level! I was looking at the back of my camera when he appeared there. He sat quietly and just posed. I thought I'd start my series with one of many close up shots :)
