A very very happy Yellow Rumped Warbler has all the berries it can eat at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge.
The Yellow-rumped Warbler is the only warbler able to digest the waxes found in bayberries and wax myrtles. Its ability to use these fruits allows it to winter farther north than other warblers, sometimes as far north as Newfoundland.
Yellow-rumped Warblers are perhaps the most versatile foragers of all warblers. They're the warbler you'd most likely to see fluttering out from a tree to catch a flying insect, and they are also quick to switch over to eating berries in the fall.

I really lied the background on this photo....if only the ones in the foreground actually were in focus. :( Not sure if it was the aperature, the wind, the fact that I was on a floating pier or that the particular lens has no VR.....guess I'll never know.
It's all about the light. Taken in the gardens of the Schloss in Bad Homburg vor der Höhe.

The sun rose and bathed the valley in a bright, soft light. What really caught my eye in this picturesque landscape however were this Rowan tree and its berries. Unfortunately it was an unnervingly sheer descent to the desired vantage point (something which my friend, and another on looking photographer found rather amusing.) I personally think it was worth it.
I somehow imagine if I ever wrote a book about rural early 1900s life, this would be the front cover. I wonder if anyone else gets this impression.
The snow is clinging to the branches of berries. The snow seems tainted with a reddish glow within .

Gebt acht, ob die Früchte giftig sind.
In diesem Sinne einem schönen Sonntag!

- Sorbus aucuparia, commonly called rowan and mountain-ash, is a species of deciduous tree or shrub in the rose family.
S. aucuparia has a slender trunk with smooth bark, a loose and roundish crown, and its leaves are pinnate in pairs of leaflets on a central vein with a terminal leaflet.
It blossoms from May to June in dense corymbs of small yellowish white flowers and develops small red pomes as fruit that ripen from August to October and are eaten by many bird species.
- De wilde lijsterbes (Sorbus aucuparia) is een zeer winterharde boom uit de rozenfamilie.
De witte bloemen verschijnen in mei in talrijke schermen van wel 15 centimeter in doorsnee. Ze ruiken erg onaangenaam.
Na de bloei ontstaan de bessen die bij de soort oranjerood zijn. Ze worden naast lijsters ook graag door andere vogels gegeten.
