Background In The Forefront
Massive quantities of Yellow-rumped Warblers have arrived in Northeast Ohio coinciding with a large hatching of midges along Lake Erie. Just as the midges are an easy target for the warblers, the warblers are providing an easy target to local bird photographers. In trying to keep things interesting, I look for a spot that provides a nice setting and then wait for a bird to arrive and complete the composition. Fortunately, with so many birds present I don't have to wait very long. For this shot I found an area with a colorful, softly lit background and waited for the Yellow-rumped warbler to enter the space.
