Blackburnian warbler

bw

This was my first sighting of a blackburnian warbler. We spent a few days in the Adirondacks, and this fellow was part of a crowd of warblers making their way through the yard.

Most of the others were, I think, black-throated greens, though the only ones I got pictures of were in their non-breeding plumage…

On a hike up Bald Mountain, flocks of golden-crowned kinglets were working the treetops. It’s amazing to me how many caterpillars there are for them up there!
