Yesterday morning I enjoyed having this Yellow-rumped Warbler pop into an open area of a leafy tree at Farmington Bay WMA for a few seconds. This was the best view I had of one of these warblers all morning long. The other Yellow-rumped Warblers were foraging deep in the shadows of the leaves. Even though I didn’t take photos of those warblers foraging I had fun observing them.<\/p>\n

In the next few weeks I should have more opportunities to photograph Yellow-rumped Warblers<\/span><\/a> in the valley. I should be able to find them in the trees next to the Jordan River close to home.<\/p>\n

Yellow-rumped Warblers are able to switch from an insect based diet to berries in the fall which means they often hang around longer than the other warblers that breed here.<\/p>\n

I am always happy to have these warblers in my viewfinder.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
