Blackburnian Warbler

Staggering birds, probably the ultimate North American warbler. Despite being quite common it’s impossible to tire of them. Seeing three males togetherin a small pine was memorable, as was one on the beach and another glowing against the black water of a woodland pool. I only saw a couple of females. A male bathing in a bird bath was the last bird I looked at before we left - perfect.

And one of JPs many stunning shots -
