      As always, very tough to shoot up into tall trees. Or any trees for that matter. The birds are hard to see, and the lighting is tricky. The posted shots reflect a fairly severe down-selection – the majority are unusable due to bad lighting and blurry and/or obscured (or totally absent) subjects. Nevertheless, that’s the reality for warblers/vireos/etc. in late summer/early fall – the trees are still in full foliage mode.
