Wikipedia: The chestnut-sided warbler (Setophaga pensylvanica) is a New World warbler. They breed in Eastern North America, from Saskatchewan to the Maritimes. Although an observation of a male in breeding plumage was recorded as far West as British Columbia. They are usually found south of the 50°N, with the north-west Georgia as the most southern extent of their breeding range.
They overwinter in Central America to northern Colombia, with a confirmed sighting from as far south as Ecuador. While they mainly spend their non-breeding period in Central America, with the highest numbers in Costa Rica, the chestnut-sided warbler does winter in southern parts of Mexico and some north-western parts of South America.

I took a road trip last week in search of some warbler species that aren't common in my area. This Chestnut-sided Warbler was one of the species I hoped to get a look at.
“I've noticed that being with you, I smile more often, I anger a little less quickly, the sun shines a little brighter, and life is so much sweeter. For being with you takes me to a different place: a place called love.” ~ Unknown
This is the conventional version of the shot... Posted below a "risk version", giving way to my non-conformist self! LOL:)
