I took my camera out in the yard slightly before 3pm on Saturday, April 12.  There were very few birds around and there was a little too much wind but the sun was out.  Unfortunately this was the slot in the afternoon when the sun doesn’t shine on the watercourse.

Right at 3pm I thought I saw a yellowish bird fly down to an unusual point, out of my view, on the water feature.  As I cautiously moved forward to investigate it flew, but after watching it for a few seconds I realized it was a warbler.  It returned to the watercourse and this time worked its way to where I could view it better.  I took about 15 photos, and as I photographed the bird it revealed its distinctive orange crown, which usually isn’t visible.  However when the bird bathes and gets its crown wet, it often shows… sometimes in a spectacular fashion.  The photo of the bird with it’s crown showing wasn’t of very good quality, but you can barely see it in the final of these three photos.
