Prairie Warbler

Prairie Warbler 

I knew this cute little guy was a warbler.  But, the question was...What kind of warbler? Turns out it's a prairie warbler, which, according to bird guide descriptions, lives in the south and east -- but, not on prairies. Go figure. I spotted him at Six Mile Cypress Preserve.  He was flitting from branch to branch so quickly, it was quite a challenge to get a decent shot. This is one colorful songbird I definitely could spend more time observing.

You did very well. My reflexes ain't so good anymore. I try to tell these guys to stay in one place but they just ignore me. So, I'll just have to look at your beautiful photos!
