They're back!! I have had the best time, the last few days, finding warblers that I missed in the Spring...oh, they were there but Tina wasn't that fast at finding them with her binoculars way back then. I would see them, with my eyes, waaay up there in the tops of those trees but then finding that same branch through a pair of binoculars was a skill I still had to practice..and of course, one must do all of the above in a few seconds as these guys flit and flitter so fast that I more or less missed seeing them in all their spring colors ..but persistence has paid off during their return visit. My first sighting Thursday, however, was in stunning black and white..A small little Black-in-White Warbler...first, looking right at me and then posing for a profile shot! How nice! Our weather has been very nice..cool cool mornings with highs in the low 80s. Perfect for enjoying the quick glimpses we are getting of these visiting birds.

Nice pix! B&W is one of my favorites.
See what all of your hard-work at birding has done to help you find them???? You have worked SO hard---and I'm proud of you. I'd love to see some of those warblers. Beautiful!!!
Hugs,

Nice shots of ths lovely little bird.I find the fall warblers can be quite a challenge.
Blessings,Ruth
Patience pays!
Neat shot, if you could share the EXIF details, I could suggest a couple of tips on how to shoot this a little bit better...Thomas
Those are great shots Tina....as usual!!
I love those little black and whites. We see them briefly on migration and just love them. Nice photographs of these quick little things.
Hi Tina. Excellent views of the B&W and far better than I had when visiting Cape May many years ago.
I'm sure youv'e heard this before but the trick when using bins is to continue watching the subject with your eyes & then lift / bring the bins up to your eyes so that you don't have to re-look for the subject. FAB
These pictures are great! I too haven't gotten out to see the warblers. Well I've been out, of course, but just can't seem to find any! I KNOW they're out there!!
What great pictures of the warblers. You are definitely getting good at spotting these beautiful birds.
Hi Tina,
Gorgeous shot of a nice bird I did not know!
I can't believe the 'fall' warblers are showing up already, seems like we just came home from WV and spring warblers!! Love the B&W. They are the friendliest of the warblers I think!
