Mourning Warbler


Mourning Warbler
Originally uploaded by ricmcarthur
We had a surprise visitor to our water bucket a few days ago.
A Mourning Warbler dropped in, worked the bushes for some insects, had a drink then moved on.
This bird skulks and is shy, prefers thickets and undergrowth and generally is not easy to see, never mind photograph. I only had a moment to grab the camera and take a shot through the Wonderful Wildlife Window.

We are on the very south end of its summer range.
