Picture Perfect

This summer we have been to new bird spots.  One of the newest places we found is in the Oregon Coast Mountain Range.  Near a little stream, there is a paved walkway for bird watchers. 

There we heard a Great Blue Heron squawking loud nearby.  Many little birds were flying around getting the early breakfast.  The best thing one can do for birdwatching is to stay still around the corner so as not to scare birds away.  Pretty soon a yellow bird got enough nerve to hop onto a branch near me.

Let me introduce to you this bright individual:

 
"Hi, I live here in the woods only in summer. 
I am a male Wilson's Warbler.  I just wanted
 to show off my eye-catching yellow coat."
