Title: A few from Carden Alvar
Post by: Steve Hood on May 29, 2016, 02:38:56 PM

I had a good time at Carden this weekend. The highlight was a pair of Blue-winged Warblers (although no good pictures).  Here are a few others I got close enough for a shot.

Wow! Yes I love the  detail in that waxwing and common yellowthroat. Were they very close to you?

Thanks.  Yes I was very close to the Waxwing and Common Yellowthroat.  I was waiting for the Yellowthroat to come to the front of a bush when 3 Waxwings flew down to the ground just 12 feet from me.  I was almost too close to the Waxwings with the lens I was using.
