Blackburnian Warbler, Presque Isle State Park

It was a wonderful warbler week at Presque Isle State Park – fairly unprecedented activity (in BirdingPI.com’s experience, at least) in terms of both variety and density of warblers. Plenty of content forthcoming, but to kick things off, here’s the lovely Blackburnian Warbler, BirdingPI.com’s second-favorite yellow-orange bird.

No pithy captions or narrative needed – let’s just enjoy this lovely bird.

As can be seen, Blackburnian Warbler tend towards the tree-tops, so lots of looking upwards!
