The somewhat disheveled appearance of this Common Yellowthroat did not keep him from belting out a mighty song! I suspect he was fresh from his morning bath in Day Brook Pond close by, and still fluffing and drying on the branch. He allowed me to approach quite close, but this shot is still a crop from a 2000mm equivalent take. It is a small bird. On any decent sized monitor, even a 7 inch tablet in landscape, if you go to full screen mode you will be seeing the bird at life-size or above. 🙂
