kentucky warbler
I work at a garden center tucked in between to patches of swamp. Today we had a little warbler inside the store for a while, probably the Kentucky Warbler, lovely simple coloring, black mask but I think the eye was visible unlike the Common Yellowthroat, and there was not the white patterning such as the Yellow-throated Warbler.
Anyway, I finally caught the poor frightened thing by hand and released it to happy freedom.
When I have this sort of close contact with a tiny bird-being I usually feel as though a fairy has been sent to bless my day. How sweet life can be.
