Yellow Warblers are so bright it is not hard to see them as they flit around gleaning insects from the trees in the Uinta National Forest. The trick is… getting them to sit still long enough out in the open to focus and fire off a few shots before they fly away. I was able to get 21 images of the bright beauty of a male Yellow Warbler yesterday before it flew away. I think that is my new record for this species!

A sun-colored bird on a sunny day in the cool mountains during the summer. What a delight.

Life is good.
