Orange-Crowned Warbler (?) Singing
[Click on the image to view in a lightbox.]
Confession time: I’m not 100% sure what bird species this is. I think it’s a warbler, and the awesome Merlin Bird ID app thinks it’s an Orange-crowned Warbler. But I’m not certain. I remember its song being reminiscent of the vibrato of an old-timey Disney princess, which would fit the Orange-crowned Warbler.
Still, this is what will happen as my passion for birds and passion for photography fuel—and occasionally outpace—one another.
