19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Black-Throated Blue Warbler
Since the lock down, I have spent much more time in my backyard attracting birds to photograph. During the Fall, many birds migrate through South Florida and this male Black-Throated Blue Warbler will stay in my yard for several days refueling to continue it's trip Southward giving me a short window to photograph this bird unless it decides to winter here. The behavior of warblers during migration is a frenzied time to fuel up as quickly as possible and often are seen spending all day foraging in flowers and trees as this bird is doing.
