Autumn Birding

I don't like to call it autumn when the temperatures are still well into the 20s but what else can I say?  The birds are migrating.

Warblers pass through.  So why do I only get a clear photo of the one I already know?

A beautiful Yellow Warbler.  Yellow being my favourite colour in flowers, walls, and clothes, it may also be my favourite colour in birds.

A sparrow showing off:

Not too often a bird makes me laugh, but this one did.  Here he is looking a bit more birdlike.

And then there was the new discovery.  It started when I took a photograph that I was sure was of a Cedar Waxwing only when I looked at it on the computer, the bird had a striped chest.  Not even my favourite bird ID site, All About Birds, told me that juvenile Cedar Waxwings have striped chests.
