[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was lucky to spot this little Black-Throated Blue Warbler (Dendroica caerulescens) as he migrated through Toronto area. It was very energetic and I had more than 400 shots with only 3 or 4 good one. This shot was taken in October and the bird was very busy to eat before depart to Florida.

Hi Peter,
You were lucky indeed to see this beautiful bird and most of all, to be able to get a good picture! I have seen many Warblers this summer but as you say, they are always moving and very difficult to capture. You caught good details with beautiful lightning and nice catch-light in his eye. A less centered composition would have been nicer but it is a minor nit for such a good shot. Welcome to TN and have fun!

These little birds ar always difficult to capturte well because they move around so quickly.
Even so,you've managed a great shot here,though I suspect your next shot will be even better ;)
Cheers
Steve
