A lifer and Shades of Blue

When Bill Elrick gave me a shout and said there are possible Mississippi Kites breeding up at sterling forest , my lifer chance was in the bag .

The Lighting was to be desired not optimal but it was a pleasure to capture this Beautiful raptor in stretch mode

When I arrived at Ironwood rd alot of the Warblers I am presuming are on the nest making it a bit more silent than usual ,,so some Indigo Buntings kept me entertained with plenty of looks

Ironwood Road Warblers

Had the chance for a great Prairie Warbler capture with the Canon S100 at Ironwood road

Also some Common Yellowthroats were about but only could manage this decent one.

Magee Marsh Warblers

Hello all I took a break from the Jersey seen to venture to the Biggest week in American Birding with Kowa ,,what a blast ,the fist highlight was this Protonatary Warbler that completely filled my frame .

When the action got slow there was plenty of Northern Orioles dining on the Orange Slices left out.

Yellow Warblers were abundant in the Marsh area although I was not tageting them specifically they did provide some great singing shots.
