Exploring Cybersecurity, Photography, Technology, and Nature
We found three individuals making noise and chasing each other among the tree's branches, leaves, and blossoms. The Yellow Warbler was not on my shotlist, but the birds were so entertaining that Ray and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. The challenge was "How do I get a clear photograph of the birds".
We had fun trying. The birds hopped among the branches and stems, sometimes zooming away to another tree on the far end of the small lakes.
The American Redstart is coal-black with vivid orange patches on the sides, wings, and tail, but I prefer the orange "scarf" of the Blackburnian Warbler.
I have one good photograph of the American Redstart, and this is it. This little warbler hops among tree branches moving quickly and erratically. I did my best to keep up, but I had just a couple of keepers when I reviewed the images in Adobe Lightroom. This image is the best of the two.

A different view of the Cerulean Warbler from the last post. The leaves obscure the wings of this individual, but this setting feels more natural and pleasing to me. The green contrasts nicely with the blue feathers.
