Description
"Yellow-Throated Warbler in a Palm" by Catherine Sherman.
A yellow-throated warbler perches on a palm frond on Great Guana Cay in the Bahamas in late fall. These warblers are commonly seen creeping about in the crowns of palms, probing among the fronds with their long bills during the winter in Florida, the Caribbean and other tropical areas.
The yellow-throated warbler is a clear-voiced singer in the treetops in southern woodlands of the United States, according to the Audubon Society. Yellow-throated Warblers return very early in spring to the U.S. pine woods and cypress swamps, where they may be seen foraging rather deliberately along branches high in the trees. In the Midwest, they are typically found in riverside groves of sycamores.
It's a small song bird, with a yellow throat and chest, gray back, black face connecting to stripes down its sides, white eye stripe, white ear patch and two white wing bars.

Catherine, amazing image with the crossing lines punctuated by the sweet bird (I feed birds at home each morning in Austin) - so glad I saw this on Twitter (via someone’s RT) - like/fav!
Catherine Sherman replied:
Thank you so much, Felipe! Usually birds won't pose for me close enough to get a good shot.
