I like the effect on the background here. Don't know exactly how this happened as I have another shot on the same branch without this ray of light effect. 2PM is not an optimal hour for warblers. I usually use that time to explore and search for good locations. The exception is the in forest area where light seem to be more diffuse. It is possible to shoot in those locations almost all day.
Taken at Edmonds marsh--sparrow is on barbed wire next to the board walk and the background is a yellow search and rescue motor life boat. One of my favorite locations to shoot!

LOS CAPULINEROS.
Ptilogonatidae (o los capulineros) es una pequeña familia de aves paseriformes que viven fundamentalmente en América Central, aunque el área de distribución de una de las especies, Phainopepla nitens, se extiende hasta el sudeste de Estados Unidos.
Están relacionada con la familia Bombycillidae, y como ella tiene plumaje suave y sedoso, usualmente de colores gris o amarillo pálido.
Todas las especies, con la excepción de Phainoptila melanoxantha, tienen pequeñas crestas. Comen frutas o insectos, y en particular Phainopepla nitens es dependiente del Phoradendron californicum.
Son aves de tipos variados de bosques (en el caso de Phainopepla nitens de semidesierto con árboles), y hacen nido en los árboles. Los miembros de esta familia fueron agrupados antes junto con Hypocolius y los Bombycillidae, en ésta última familia, donde son agrupados también en la lista de control de Sibley-Monroe.
Especies de Ptilogonatidae:
1 -Phainoptila melanoxantha, capulinero negro y amarillo, Black-and-yellow Silky-flycatcher
2-Ptilogonys cinereus, capulinero gris, Gray Silky-flycatcher
3 -Ptilogonys caudatus, capulinero de cola larga, Long-tailed Silky-flycatcher
4- Phainopepla nitens, capulinero negro, Phainopepla

I only saw one Nashville Warbler at Magee Marsh and of my two trips there I only saw it this year. When you're on a bird you've never seen before the thrill is intense and trying to get that perfect shot quite stressful. But I was quite happy to see this photo turn up in my Lightroom queue and I'm pleased to post it to Flickr! Even better, the warbler has caught some food in the form of a green winged insect in its beak!!
