Common Yellowthroat at Jack Pine Trail
May 30th, 2011
The Common Yellowthroat is a common breeding warbler in Ottawa's marshes and met meadows. Its habit of skulking in deep brush and tall cattails makes it difficult to observe. However, yellowthroats get quite curious about intruders into their territory, and are responsive to pishing. You can sometimes get good views as they hop around trying to figure out what you are and what you're up to.

That first pic is really good... very nice composition and lines. I think it's your most artistic shot in quite a while!
