A documented Warbler sighting!

Warblers are masters at hiding behind leaves and branches.  

See!

Ha!  I caught him!

It's a male Wilson's Warbler.

I normally have one on and off for most of the summer.

My Merlin sound app has 'heard' one on and off.

But now I've gotten to see the bright yellow guy.

Male Orange-shafted Northern Flicker

Female Hairy Woodpecker and male Black-headed Grosbeak

Male Downy Woodpecker

Male Acorn Woodpecker 

This is exciting because he is in the FRONT YARD!

Usually I see him on a feeder in the backyard.

Or on a tree branch in the backyard.

Come guy - send in some friends!

Guess who this might be.

Did you guess?

I only got one blurry photo of a male Pileated Woodpecker before he flew off.
