This was the first time I've concentrated on photographing warblers. I already knew that they are a challenge as these small fast birds don't sit still long so there is little opportunity to compose and expose. After a while I started to get the hang of it and was able to have more than pictures of perches. Most of these are ruby crowned kinglets, the males have the red crown. I'm also including a northern parula. All of these were taken on a cloudy day with the birds under the canopy at Kissena Park here in New York City.

Nice work on those tiny jittery Ruby Crowned Morris! They are the biggest challenge as they sure don't stay put for long at all

Looks like the canopy gave you pleasing diffused light, great work in the challenging environment, you got some cute shots of them.

I was tired, I had lunch while the images transferred. Then rated them and laid down and read for an hour before starting to process

Thank you Karl,

I like to work with soft diffused light. It lets one capture every detail.

Nice job Morris you have to love an overcast day for great light and nice detail. Those Kinglets do not sit still.
